Thu Apr 25 03:53:02 AEST 2019


This converts the plain text documentation to reStructuredText format and
add it to Sphinx TOC tree. No essential content change.

+APEI Error INJection
+====================
 
 EINJ provides a hardware error injection mechanism. It is very useful
 for debugging and testing APEI and RAS features in general.
 
 You need to check whether your BIOS supports EINJ first. For that, look
-for early boot messages similar to this one:
