     3do debug the boot process the pstore driver is used to create a persitant storage area that survives boot.
     4
     5The principle idea is:
     6- boot the boot image that you want to debug and write the boot log to pstore
     7- generate a kernel panic
     8- boot a recovery boot image that also has pstore enabled to analyze the log
     9
     10=== Kernel ===
     11The following options have to be enabled in the kernel config (in both boot images)

     16CONFIG_PSTORE_PMSG=y
     17CONFIG_PSTORE_RAM=y
     18}}}
