Uncompressing Linux.................................................................................................................... done, booting the kernel.
Linux version 2.6.29-06608-g15f7176-dirty (a0393673@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) (gcc version 4.3.2 (Sourcery G++ Lite 2008q3-72) ) #3 Tue Mar 31 16:43:50 IST 2009
