How would I capture all the info that flies by on my screen
during a boot?

Usually it use some kind of virtualizatiion software. In ms$windows
there are vmware. Linux must have some but i don't know.


Would this be what you are looking for:

dmesg |less

If you run that command in a terminal it will print out the messages
from the previous boot. See also man dmesg.

Thanks.
