+An ad-hoc collection of patches to the Linux kernel and related
+utilities, to make the best use of ksymoops.
+
+Most of the kernel patches are to extend the information logged on an
+Oops, some architectures currently (2.1.126) do not provide full
+diagnostics.  Hopefully these patches will be integrated into the
+kernel tree in future.  ksymoops will still run without these patches
+but will provide degraded output.
+
+mips    - Kernel patch by Ulf Carlsson <ulfc@bun.falkenberg.se> to
+          provide full diagnostics on a mips Oops.
+
+ppc     - Kernel patch by "Ryan Nielsen" <ran@krazynet.com> to provide
+          full diagnostics on a ppc Oops.
