New Revision: 333662
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/333662

Log:
  Clarify that boot_mute / boot -m mutes kernel console only
  
  Perhaps RB_MUTE could mute user startup (rc) output as well, but right
  now it mutes only kernel console output, so make the documentation match
  reality.
