Subject[PATCH] config option for default loglevel
Hi,

I've created a little patch to make the default loglevel a configurable
option. Is there a chance that this patch will be included in a future
release?

+ All Kernel Messages with a loglevel smaller than the console loglevel
+ will be printed to the console. This value can later be changed with
+ klogd or other programs. The loglevels are defined as follows:
+
+ 0 (KERN_EMERG) system is unusable
+ 1 (KERN_ALERT) action must be taken immediately
+ 2 (KERN_CRIT) critical conditions
+ 3 (KERN_ERR) error conditions
+ 4 (KERN_WARNING) warning conditions
+ 5 (KERN_NOTICE) normal but significant condition
+ 6 (KERN_INFO) informational
+ 7 (KERN_DEBUG) debug-level messages
+
+ The console loglevel can be set to a value in the range from 1 to 8.
