Bug#766447: add parameter to override the seconds of 'Will restart in 5 seconds.'
Package: src:linux
Version: 3.16.5-1
Severity: wishlist
Regarding
'Attempt to start maintenance shell failed. Will restart in 5 seconds.'
5 seconds is not long enough to read all but a few of the words on the screen.
Please add a boot parameter to control this.
Also document it in
Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt.gz
and perhaps say "adjust with xyz=" right there in the message.
One would think that panic= is the parameter that is used, but it is not.
