Right. In fact I'd rather leave the console printing KERN_INFO and make sure the (debug) messages are really KERN_DEBUG. This way we wouldn't have much noise with normal boot, but we could see KERN_DEBUG when something goes wrong (and the kernel is being told to print everything). -- Krzysztof Halasa Network Administrator - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
