sure, but, as geoff said, i don't like the failure modes.

stuffing the last n lines of 'console' output to grab on
reboot might solve the failure mode issue, but you'll
need somewhere to stick it and a guarantee it'll
get there.

of course linux have already broken this because
the 3 zillion lines of output on reboot will probably
overflow any 'reasonably' sized 'place'.
