I ask because it seems pretty difficult to get netconsole running even on a machine that has multiple physical interfaces, only one of which is slaved. I scoured the documentation but didn't find anything relevant (does documentation/networking/netconsole.txt need a patch?). AFAICT, the last discussion ended here back in June '11 http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1106.1/03185.html Any help or pointers provided would be much appreciated. Regards, Peter Hurley
