Where's the best place to start bootlogd? (I'm surprised that metalog doesn't log the full boot messages. Am I missing some configuration option of metalog?)

You might want to look into your /etc/conf.d/rc file....

Quote:
# RC_BOOTLOG will generate a log of the boot messages shown on the console.
# Useful for headless machines or debugging. You need to emerge the
# app-admin/showconsole package for this to work. Note that this probably
# won't work correctly with boot splash.

RC_BOOTLOG="no"
