+ When a program crashes due to an exception, or the kernel detects
+ an internal error, the kernel can print a not so brief message
+ explaining what the problem was. This debugging information is
+ useful to developers and kernel hackers when tracking down problems,
+ but mostly meaningless to other people. This is always helpful for
+ debugging but serves no purpose on a production system.
+ Most people should say N here.

+ If an exception is caused while executing code within the exception
+ handler, the NMI handler, the reset vector, or in emulator mode,
+ a double fault occurs. On the Blackfin, this is a unrecoverable
+ event. You have two options:
+ - RESET exactly when double fault occurs. The excepting
+ instruction address is stored in RETX, where the next kernel
+ boot will print it out.
+ - Print debug message. This is much more error prone, although
+ easier to handle. It is error prone since:
+ - The excepting instruction is not committed.
+ - All writebacks from the instruction are prevented.
+ - The generated exception is not taken.
+ - The EXCAUSE field is updated with an unrecoverable event
+ The only way to check this is to see if EXCAUSE contains the
+ unrecoverable event value at every exception return. By selecting
+ this option, you are skipping over the faulting instruction, and
+ hoping things stay together enough to print out a debug message.
+
+ This does add a little kernel code, but is the only method to debug
+ double faults - if unsure say "Y"

This option enables special console drivers which allow the kernel
to print messages very early in the bootup process.
