Subject: [PATCH] document "nc" in addition to "netcat" in netconsole.txt
Date: Mon, 19 Jan 2009 16:46:07 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200901191646.07935.jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org> (raw)

It always annoyed me that the netconsole documentation didn't give me the
correct command for my distro.  Update it with a command line that actually
works on my Fedora install.
