====== What's CDlinux' kernel command line parameters? ====== These are CDlinux' kernel command line parameters. They are all OPTIONAL. In most cases, you can safely ignore them and use the default values. **CDL_AMOUNT** CDlinux can auto detect/mount your disks/partitions (coldplug & hotplug). This feature is enabled in CDlinux standard edition. But for safty, it is disabled in CDlinux_mini by default. For example, if you are running CDlinux_mini to rescue your disk/partition, you surely don't want this feature. But, if you do want it, you can use this parameter. default: yes for CDlinux standard no for CDlinux_mini example: CDL_AMOUNT=yes # auto detect and mount CDL_AMOUNT=no # don't mount, detect only **CDL_CMD** Things to run before extra packages/modules are installed. Unless you want to run something in the very early init stage, don't use this. In most case you can use the rc.local script instead. default: no default example: # let your first md be /dev/md1 instead of /dev/md0: CDL_CMD="mdadm -Ac partitions -m 0 /dev/md1" # you can also specify multiple commands: CDL_CMD="echo 'Hi!'; echo 'Hi!' | sed 's/!/ again!/'" **CDL_DEV** On which device is CDlinux located? default: /dev/sr0 example: CDL_DEV=/dev/hda1 CDL_DEV=UUID=42656e5a-1971-0825-0001-d5d4d1b1bae9 CDL_DEV=LABEL=YourDiskLabel CDL_DEV=LABEL="Your Disk Label" **CDL_DIR** In which directory (of the CDL_DEV file system) is CDlinux located? default: boot/CDlinux, CDlinux example: CDL_DIR=Some/Dir/CDlinux CDL_DIR="Some Dir/CDlinux" # your boot loader should # support this though **CDL_GUI** Should CDlinux start Graphical User Interface (X Window) automatically? default: yes, if X installed and RAM >128M example: CDL_GUI=yes CDL_GUI=no **CDL_LANG** System language/locale. default: en_US.UTF-8 example: CDL_LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8 **CDL_LOOP** Should CDlinux install all modules in "loop" mode to save RAM? default: determined dynamically. If you have enough RAM, run in the memory. If no enough RAM, fallback to "loop" mode. example: CDL_LOOP=yes CDL_LOOP=no **CDL_WAIT** How many seconds should CDlinux wait for storage devices to get ready? default: 8 seconds, if needed. example: CDL_WAIT=16
