What do Kernel command line parameters (also also known as boot options) mean?
When you go to Ubuntu (or better, GRUB) options, you have things like nomodeset
, quiet
and splash
. What do these options mean?
I am also interested in other parameters and would be interested to see descriptions of any kernel parameter (like acpi
), but these are not essential.
