Are you sure you are seeing all the boot messages?  Basically,
dmesg will not do it.  A lot of it is erased.  After the 
initial login prompt appears, not even <shift><pg up> will 
show them.

The way around this is in /etc/inittab   Modify your line
as follows:

1:12345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty --noclear tty1

This will make your first virtual console not clear the
messages after the initial login prompt appears.  You will
then be able to scroll back with <shift><pg up> and see the
"rest of the story".  Maybe there is something for you to
see; maybe not.
