Sorry if this has appeared before in the thread...
I like the boot messages (as everyone running linus, I suppose) because you know what is it doing really. But boot is now a real mesh. If toy want to find something you have to read all.
Would't it be nice to give a template or a try to standarise the init or module insertion messages ? Someone that can have a global view of what kind of info a subsystem or a driver can print (name of driver, version, devices detected
Say you can change:
Starting kswapd v1.8 pty: 256 Unix98 ptys configured Serial driver version 5.05b (2001-05-03) with MANY_PORTS SHARE_IRQ SERIAL_PCI en abled ttyS00 at 0x03f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A ttyS01 at 0x02f8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A Real Time Clock Driver v1.10d block: queued sectors max/low 169645kB/56548kB, 512 slots per queue Uniform Multi-Platform E-IDE driver Revision: 6.31 ide: Assuming 33MHz system bus speed for PIO modes; override with idebus=xx PIIX4: IDE controller on PCI bus 00 dev 39 PIIX4: chipset revision 1 PIIX4: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later
To:

Just an idea....
