Ok, my two cents.
Print all copyright, config, etc. as KERN_DEBUG. Then use a 'verbose' or
similar parameter to lilo/kernel to enable console printing of KERN_DEBUG,
to be used when the system fails to boot, etc.

Hi!
...it will loop forever. I have fix that allows up-to 0x0

It seems to be ok with 2.4.5-ac19, so I guess I'll just wait for

How about a new level, say "KERN_CONFIG", with a "show-config"
