Default is a small circular buffer that you can dump with command logread.

Set nvram value log_ipaddr to some remote server, if you want the messages 
somewhere else too. You would also have to enable the remote server to listen 
for them:
  open udp port 514 in the firewall, 
  enable the remote syslog to listen (I could tell you how suse does this)

Writing the messages to the flash (/var/log) is not a good idea :-).

HTH,

Joachim
