Bug#273191: no longer seems to support kernel command line variable values with spaces in their name



Package: kernel
Version: 2.6.8
Severity: normal

The 2.4 kernel supports parameters passed on the kernel command line of
the form COUNTRY="United States"; it understands the use of quotes
around the value with a space in it, and sets the environment variable
fine. It seems this support was dropped in the 2.6 kernel.
