The real issue here is what file in the image to edit and how. You could try editing virt-p2v-make-disk (or a local copy of it) and add something to the long virt-builder command right near the end of the file. I would suggest adding an --edit option such as: --edit '/etc/grub/grub.conf: s/linux (.*)/linux $1 your_parameter=foo/' \ > 2. Is there a way to create the image as a bootable ISO?

I actually tried at one point to create a bootable ISO from a virt-builder image, but totally failed to make anything work ... You could try the kickstart approach (ie. virt-p2v-make-kickstart) but then you're in a world of other painful tools such as livecd-creator.
