You should look at the man page for syslog.conf(5).  All you have to do
is add ",/pathtofilename" to each entry that has "/dev/console" in it.  This
will send all messages that appear on the console to the named file.  After
you edit "/etc/syslog.conf", you will have to send syslogd(8) a SIGHUP so
that it will reread this file.

Hope this help!
