################################################################################ # TACPI DControl ACPI module behaviour $acpi_load If set, the ACPI module will be loaded. Clear it with unset acpi_load Note that the ACPI autodetection sets a number of hints to pass information to the ACPI module. These should not be overridden, or system behaviour will be undefined. ################################################################################ # Treboot DReboot the system reboot Causes the system to immediately reboot. ################################################################################ # Theap DDisplay memory management statistics heap Requests debugging output from the heap manager. For debugging use only. ################################################################################ # Tset Snum_ide_disks DSet the number of IDE disks NOTE: this variable is deprecated, use root_disk_unit instead. set num_ide_disks= When booting from a SCSI disk on a system with one or more IDE disks, and where the IDE disks are the default boot device, it is necessary to tell the kernel how many IDE disks there are in order to have it correctly locate the SCSI disk you are booting from. ################################################################################ # Tset Sboot_userconfig DStart Userconfig set boot_userconfig Requests that the kernel's interactive device configuration program be run when the kernel is booted. ################################################################################ # Tset Sroot_disk_unit DForce the root disk unit number. set root_disk_unit= If the code which detects the disk unit number for the root disk is confused, eg. by a mix of SCSI and IDE disks, or IDE disks with gaps in the sequence (eg. no primary slave), the unit number can be forced by setting this variable. ################################################################################
