Subject: rephrase acpi init messages for i386/x86_64
Date: Fri, 18 Jul 2003 11:38:51 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030718093851.GA1434@spaans.vs19.net> (raw)
Hello,
Below is a simple patch which changes the wording of 'BIOS passes blacklist'
into something which is more clear - not being a native speaker of English I
was wondering whether 'BIOS passes blacklist' meant that my machine was
listed or not.
Furthermore, nothing is displayed in the case a BIOS /is/ listed - adding a
warning in that case seems useful to me.
