initramfs-tools: make the panic argument available in the rescue shell
Sometimes one misses the error message printed by the panic helper function, for example when attaching a serial console after the fact, or if kernel messages resulting from udev activity obscure or scroll it away. Please consider adding some facility like the attached patch. Thanks, Feri. (closes: #569033) Signed-off-by: maximilian attems <maks@debian.org>
