[RFC PATCH] netconsole.txt: "nc" needs "-p" to specify the listening port

From: Dirk Gouders

Hi Jesse,

I would like to ask you to check if the documentation of "nc" in
netconsole.txt is still correct. I tried two different netcat packages
and both require "-p" to specify the listening port. I am wondering if
that changed after the use of "nc" has been documented.

Best regards,

Dirk
