Sorry, I saw your mail too late. I agree that it should have a high level, but since almost all messages in v3 are BIOS_DEBUG and even the first "LinuxBIOS v3.0.0 starting" is BIOS_INFO, I thought BIOS_INFO would be OK. BIOS_EMERG is a bit strong because every cold boot will trigger that code path by design. Someone needs to go through all those printk() and decide which level is appropriate for each message. > Acked-by: Torsten Duwe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Thanks!
