Hi;

I have a Debian kernel in which some printks have been left. These make
a mess of the console and logs. Is there any way, other than recompiling
the kernel, of suppressing the printk output?

Another method, in case you just want to make the console usable again:

sysrq-NUM sets the console logging level to NUM .

try pressing alt-sysrq-1 in the console, or:

echo 1 >/proc/sysrq-trigger

In addition, what are those messages? Perhaps there is a specific way to
get rid of those messages.
