pasting from dracut - or just with curl

For debugging purpose it’s quite useful to paste some output to fpaste.org. With the old fpaste that was a bit cumbersome. But the new fpaste.org site has a nice API which can be used in a restless fashion.

To paste a file, just call:

$ curl \
    --data-urlencode paste_data@/tmp/log \
    -d paste_lang=text \
    -d api_submit=true \
    -d mode=xml \
    fpaste.org

The API documentation can be found here.
