I believe it's coming from
https://github.com/mirage/mirage-bootvar-xen/blob/master/lib/bootvar.ml#L43
, since "Malformed boot parameter" (as seen in the output here
https://gist.github.com/sgrove/dd47f8a7e34583b809f4#file-ec2_boot_console_output-L95,
and passed by ec2 here
https://gist.github.com/sgrove/dd47f8a7e34583b809f4#file-ec2_boot_console_output-L11)
doesn't show up in Functoria. That said, I chatted a bit with Drup about
this, and he mentioned that Functoria will run into the same issue, even if
we can get past the bootvar-xen issue.

Is it perhaps possible to change the boot parameters for EC2 (I'll google
as I have been doing in order to get this far, but perhaps someone knows
already)? If not, what's the solution for handling this?
