What is > this? Are you nuts? This is doubly idiotic because this is all early boot. Most users don't even have a way to access the debug info if the machine crashes that early.

Don't frigging crash if you have any other option. -- tejun -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-doc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
