Miquel van Smoorenburg has implemented a comprehensive and nicely
integrated serial console system. If he feels that it is stable enough,
it would be good if that could go into the kernel as soon as possible. If
he has doubts, one could also consider using my minimalistic patches
(which are rather well-tested on SCSI systems, but may conceivably trouble
IDE if printk is invoked with interrupts truned off) as an interim
solution.
It may also be a good idea to set DEFAULT_MESSAGE_LOGLEVEL to 0 for a while
to make sure that a system will print everything interesting by default
even if klogd is running.
