I'm pretty sure that the boot.log is written when the
kernel has successfully started init and some script or
process on the root filesystem contacts the kernel and
copies the dmesg data to that file.
So in the case where the boot panics before init is
started (and has a working rootfs) no boot.log will be
written at all.
Nevertheless, there are some methods to get that boot
log from the initramfs, but it might need a few dirty
tricks or hacks :)
