Well, in the mean time, every time someone builds the Kernel with
COMPILE_TEST enabled, a warning will be produced.

So, my suggestion would be to write it on a different way, like:

	"A complete booting guide is being written and should be
	 available on future versions."

Or:
	TODO:
	   Write a complete booting guide.

And update this once the guide is finished. This should be enough
to prevent the warning.

With regards to converting it to ReST, that's recommended. I suspect
we could be able to finish the entire doc conversion in a couple
Kernel versions. 

Also, it should be really trivial to convert this one to ReST.

Thanks,
Mauro
