From c11b73b1ed888eae3d562f99aa91b92c21af720f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miod Vallat Date: Tue, 5 Nov 2024 09:45:23 +0000 Subject: The MI boot code used to have an infinite loop trying to boot the kernel, which got limited to at most two tries 26 years ago for the 2.3 release, but the documentation was never updated to match this change. Do it now.
