Comments on How to Edit Kernel Boot Parameters on Linux

Changing or editing your kernel boot parameters is very important when you want to fix an issue that causes errors during boot, or test a new feature, activate a different driver, or disable a feature on your system. These parameters are stored as text, in the boot loader's configuration file which the kernel parses during the init process.

Hi there! I got a bigger problem: I do not have an access to a bootloader,

and I need to be able to change /proc/cmdline on a running system

(at initramfs) and continue to boot further... Do you know how to do it?

How would I add multiple boot paramters? For example: I want to use the example:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"

but I also want to add the additional one: acpi=off
