This is only needed if your - system requires ACPI to function properly. This is not - required for Hyperthreading support. - -acpi=off Completely disables ACPI. This is useful on some older systems - and is also a requirement for using APM. This will disable any - Hyperthreading support of your processor. - -console=X This sets up serial console access for the CD. The first - option is the device, usually ttyS0 on x86, followed by any - connection options, which are comma separated. The default - options are 9600,8,n,1. - -dmraid=X This allows for passing options to the device-mapper RAID - subsystem. Options should be encapsulated in quotes. -doapm This loads APM driver support. This requires you to also use - acpi=off. - -dopcmcia This loads support for PCMCIA and Cardbus hardware and also - causes the pcmcia cardmgr to be started by the CD on boot. - This is only required when booting from PCMCIA/Cardbus devices. - -doscsi This loads support for most SCSI controllers. This is also a - requirement for booting most USB devices, as they use the SCSI - subsystem of the kernel. - -hda=stroke This allows you to partition the whole hard disk even when your - BIOS is unable to handle large disks. This option is only used - on machines with an older BIOS. Replace hda with the device - that is requiring this option. - -ide=nodma This forces the disabling of DMA in the kernel and is required - by some IDE chipsets and also by some CDROM drives. If your - system is having trouble reading from your IDE CDROM, try this - option. This also disables the default hdparm settings from - being executed. - -noapic This disables the Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller - that is present on newer motherboards. It has been known to - cause some problems on older hardware. - -nodetect This disables all of the autodetection done by the CD, - including device autodetection and DHCP probing. This is - useful for doing debugging of a failing CD or driver. - -nodhcp This disables DHCP probing on detected network cards. This is - useful on networks with only static addresses. - -nodmraid Disables support for device-mapper RAID, such as that used for - on-board IDE/SATA RAID controllers. - -nofirewire This disables the loading of Firewire modules. This should - only be necessary if your Firewire hardware is causing - a problem with booting the CD. - -nogpm This diables gpm console mouse support. - -nohotplug This disables the loading of the hotplug and coldplug init - scripts at boot. This is useful for doing debugging of a - failing CD or driver. - -nokeymap This disables the keymap selection used to select non-US - keyboard layouts. - -nolapic This disables the local APIC on Uniprocessor kernels. - -nosata This disables the loading of Serial ATA modules. This is used - if your system is having problems with the SATA subsystem. - -nosmp This disables SMP, or Symmetric Multiprocessing, on SMP-enabled - kernels. This is useful for debugging SMP-related issues with - certain drivers and motherboards. - -nosound This disables sound support and volume setting. This is useful - for systems where sound support causes problems. - -nousb This disables the autoloading of USB modules. This is useful - for debugging USB issues. - -slowusb This adds some extra pauses into the boot process for slow - USB CDROMs, like in the IBM BladeCenter. - -<comment>Volume/Device Management:</comment> - -doevms This enables support for IBM's pluggable EVMS, or Enterprise - Volume Management System. This is not safe to use with lvm. - -dolvm This enables support for Linux's Logical Volume Management. - This is not safe to use with evms. - -<comment>Other options:</comment> - -debug Enables debugging code. This might get messy, as it displays - a lot of data to the screen. - -docache This caches the entire runtime portion of the CD into RAM, - which allows you to umount /mnt/cdrom and mount another CDROM. - This option requires that you have at least twice as much - available RAM as the size of the CD. - -doload=X This causes the initial ramdisk to load any module listed, as - well as dependencies. Replace X with the module name. - - Multiple modules can be specified by a comma-separated list. - -dosshd Starts sshd on boot, which is useful for unattended installs. - -passwd=foo Sets whatever follows the equals as the root password, which - is required for dosshd since we scramble the root password. - -noload=X This causes the initial ramdisk to skip the loading of a - specific module that may be causing a problem. Syntax matches - that of doload. - -nonfs Disables the starting of portmap/nfsmount on boot. - -nox This causes an X-enabled LiveCD to not automatically start X, - but rather, to drop to the command line instead. +</body> -scandelay This causes the CD to pause for 10 seconds during certain - portions the boot process to allow for devices that are slow to - initialize to be ready for use. +<body> + <include href="../hb-install-kernelparams.xml"/> +</body> -scandelay=X This allows you to specify a given delay, in seconds, to be - added to certain portions of the boot process to allow for - devices that are slow to initialize to be ready for use. - Replace X with the number of seconds to pause. -</pre> +<body> <note> The CD will check for "no*" options before "do*" options, so that you can -- [email protected] mailing list
