Subject[PATCH] fix pnpbios fault message
From
Date
When your plug-n-play BIOS is truly broken and generates a fault
during use, we report this and suggest disabling it. The message
produced suggests using "nobiospnp" to achive this, the correct
option is "pnpbios=off". This patch upates the message.
