One thing I've done before is build a live image with the systemd debug
console enabled. To do that, add this to the %post of a ks:

%post
mkdir -p /etc/systemd/system/sysinit.target.wants
ln -s /usr/lib/systemd/system/debug-shell.service /etc/systemd/system/sysinit.target.wants
%end

Here's the whole .ks I used:

%include spin-kickstarts/fedora-live-workstation.ks

repo --name=fedora --baseurl=http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/$releasever/$basearch/os/
repo --name=side --baseurl=file:///home/adamw/local/repo2/$basearch
repo --name=bleed --baseurl=http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/mash/bleed/$basearch

%post
mkdir -p /etc/systemd/system/sysinit.target.wants
ln -s /usr/lib/systemd/system/debug-shell.service /etc/systemd/system/sysinit.target.wants
%end

obviously, you'd have a checkout of the f21 branch of spin-kickstarts in
the directory 'spin-kickstarts' below wherever that spec file is
located, and you'd have your own side repo or just disable it.
