Description Dmitriy Baranov 2013-06-23 11:20:15 UTC

The new initrd generated by genkernel now shows a lot more message at startup. How can I  reduce verbosity level? (I know about "quiet" option, which is passed directly to the kernel, but in this case, verbosity level drops to zero).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge genkernel
2. genkernel all
3. reboot
