Is it possible to compile in kernel kexec support? at least for architectures |
| 4 |
where it is well supported. |

It is very handy, when Gentoo installed on PC remotely on regular PC, when |
| 7 |
people there just boot CD and set ip, and leave location for few days. |
| 8 |
It is not possible to eject CD on remote PC, cause on reboot BIOS usually |
| 9 |
closing tray. kexec will let to reboot system to newly compiled kernel |
| 10 |
without full reboot, avoiding system to boot from CD again. Remote tech's on |
| 11 |
location can remove CD later, when it is comfortable for them. |
