How about
serial console over a cross-over cable to a second box. netconsole will let you put the console on a different box over the network. console on line printer will let you have a permanent record of the console output on paper.
See Documentation/serial-console.txt Documentation/networking/netconsole.txt the help entry for "config LP_CONSOLE" (in drivers/char/Kconfig)
Would any of those perhaps help you in capturing anything ?
