Unfortunately, this shows only the kernel messages, not the subsequent
messages from userland programs run during startup.  In particular,
messages from fsck(8) are missing.  Unfortunately, since the demise of
paper consoles, there's no way to save this information.  This is a
general UNIX problem, not a FreeBSD problem.
