Author: emaste Date: Wed May 16 02:15:18 2018 New Revision: 333662 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/333662 Log: Clarify that boot_mute / boot -m mutes kernel console only Perhaps RB_MUTE could mute user startup (rc) output as well, but right now it mutes only kernel console output, so make the documentation match reality.
