what is the best way to generate a "boot.log" on an arch64 system?

I want to save the information echoed to the screen during boot to a log file.

My understanding is that this can be enabled in several ways, but usually most cleanly by appropriately modifying one's syslog.conf file.

Looking inside "/etc/syslog-ng.conf" it's not clear that the boot.log functionality is in fact easily turned on with arch systems. 

For old redhat systems (eg.) this information used to be routed through "local7."  Does anyone know the proper (or at least a good) way to do this on a modern arch system?  I'd like to avoid an ugly hack.
