Yes, just change SYS= to a descriptive name. Please also include any other relevant information (e.g. console output, a description of what happens, etc) in a file in the directory before you tar it up. Include your email address in this file too. That way, the information is in one place. If you know how to build an ACPI_DEBUG kernel and capture the output over serial console (USB serial is no good, it must be a real standard serial port) then please include that too. There's a *lot* of output, you might want to set this faster than 9600...
