How can this be suggested on an official packaged kernel?

  * To change the built-in command line on a PReP system, run mkvmlinuz
    and then open the vmlinuz file with a binary editor (emacs is fine).
    Locate the default command line and change it to your liking.
    However, make sure you preserve the exact length and don't change
    anything else, after all you are editing a binary!

Asking an end user to binary-edit a kernel is mindless, from my point of view.

Hi,

I haven't heard from the original submitter again, despite my effort
to contact him.  Therefore, I assume his question has been dealt with
elsewhere, and this bug report can be closed.

Regards, Jens.
