Tips & Tricks with the kernel cmdline
|
|
=====================================
|
|
|
|
This document summarizes the different boot parameters that can be
|
|
passed on the Linux kernel command line. Not limited to Finit.
|
|
|
|
The `bool` setting is one of `on, off, true false, 1, 0`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* `debug`: Enable kernel debug. Debug messages are printed to the
|
|
console until Finit starts up.
|
|
|
|
* `finit.debug[=bool]`: Enable finit debug. This is operated
|
|
independently of the kernel debug setting. New as of Finit v4.
|
|
|
|
* `finit.show_status[=bool]`: Control finit boot progress, including
|
|
banner.
|
|
|
|
* `finit.status_style=<classic,modern>`: Set Finit boot progress style,
|
|
when enabled.
|
|
|
|
* `init=/bin/sh`: Bypass system default init and tell kernel to start a
|
|
shell. Note, this shell is very limited and does not support
|
|
signals and has no job control. Recommend using, and modifying,
|
|
`rescue` mode instead.
|
|
|
|
* `panic=SEC`: By default the kernel does not reboot after a kernel
|
|
panic. This setting will cause a kernel reboot after SEC seconds.
|
|
|
|
* `quiet`: Suppress kernel logging to console, except for warnings and
|
|
errors.
|
|
|
|
* `rescue`: Start Finit rescue mode; no network, no `fsck` of file
|
|
systems in `/etc/fstab`, no `/etc/rc.local`, no `runparts`. The
|
|
configuration is read from `/lib/finit/rescue.conf`, and can be
|
|
modified by the operator.
|
|
|
|
* `single`, or `S`: Single user mode, runlevel 1, in Finit. Useful to
|
|
debug problems with the regular runlevel. All services and TTYs in
|
|
`[1]` will be started, so a `tty [1] @console nologin` configuration
|
|
presents you with a root console without login.
