[PATCH] ppc64 iSeries: fix boot time setting

[George Anzinger]

Am I the only one who has problems with the signature mark ("-- ") prior to the 
patch.  For example, this is a reply with quoting the original message.  My 
mailer (mozilla) dropped everything after the "-- " in the original.  If someone 
knows how to change mozilla to fix this, I welcome the help.
