+ help
+ kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
+ current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
+ but it is indepedent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
+ you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
+
+ The name comes from the similiarity to the exec system call.
+
+ It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
+ is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
+ initially work for you. It may help to enable device hotplugging
+ support. As of this writing the exact hardware interface is
+ strongly in flux, so no good recommendation can be made.

Some MIPS machines can be configured for either little or big endian
byte order. These modes require different kernels and a different
- Linux distribution. In general there is one prefered byteorder for a
+ Linux distribution. In general there is one preferred byteorder for a
particular system but some systems are just as commonly used in the
