The best way to get a bootchart without bootchart is to backport bootchart to kernel 2.6.25 and then the best strategy to do that is likely to upgrade to kernel 2.6.32 and rename it 2.6.25 and say it's a backport of the entire 2.6.32 to 2.6.25 :-P Yours, Linus Walleij -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
