Package: bootchart2 Version: 0.12.6-1 Severity: minor Tags: patch
Hi, the package doesn't have a manpage. I've tried to write one, with the informations shipped in the README file. Actually, I've write two different manpages: a general overview for the package (named bootchart2.1) and a specific page for bootchartd (bootchartd.1). Hope this helps, patches attached.

.TH BOOTCHART2 2011-02-25 .SH NAME bootchart2 \- collects and analyses data from boot process .SH DESCRIPTION bootchart2 consists of three different pieces of software: a shell script, a collector and a visualisation tool. For details on the visualisation tool, please see .BR pybootchartgui (1) .SH CONFIGURATION After install simply add these options to your kernel command line, normally in \fI/boot/grub/menu.lst: .in +4n .nf .B "initcall_debug printk.time=y quiet init=/sbin/bootchartd ..." .fi .in Then after bootup run pybootchartgui to get an interactive chart rendering tool. If you want to chart the initrd, add .in +4n .nf .B rdinitrd=/sbin/bootchartd .fi .in to the kernel command line. .PP To make bootchart2 work best, please ensure your kernel is configured with .I CONFIG_PROC_EVENTS=y and .I CONFIG_TASKSTATS=y . .PP If you want to start bootchart2 in a dracut (version >= 008) initramfs, you have to change .I init=/sbin/bootchartd to .I rdinit=/sbin/bootchartd and regenerate the initramfs with bootchart support with: .in +4n .nf .B "# dracut -f -a bootchart" .fi .in .SH FILES \fI/etc/bootchartd.conf\fR, \fI/sbin/bootchartd .SH SEE ALSO .BR pybootchartgui (1), .BR bootchartd (1)
