Hello, developers.

If someone still interesting in Ingo Molnar's netconsole patch against
latest 2.5 tree, here it is.
Now it is statically linked into the kernel to obtain even part of
dmesg.
It sends UDP datagrams only to broadcast
address(255.255.255.255/ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff) from only 10.0.0.2 address.
All ports are also statically assigned to 6666.
It uses only the first net_device, wich is not LOOPBACK or dummy.
And wich can change it's flags.

But in theory anyone still can do insmod with params.
In practiсe module part differs from the original almost only in
replacement of__cli() and others by cli()...

netconsole_client is the latest from
http://redhat.com/~mingo/netconsole-patches/
