[debian-knoppix] Commandline Problems with 2.6 kernel "solved"
Hi,
I found the problem that some of you did have with 2.6 (blank screen) after
entering too many boot options.
In linux-2.6.5/init/main.c are hardcoded too variables that lead to a kernel
panic if there are more than 8 unknown arguments to the kernel ...
#define MAX_INIT_ARGS 8
#define MAX_INIT_ENVS 8
For all of you doing remasters / masters ( and you Klaus :-) ) should double
those values for example, which could lead to a higher memory need.
Another idea would be too disable the kernel-panic and just print a warning
with ignored options ...
or jusrt remove the panic:
- if (panic_later)
- panic(panic_later, panic_param);
Well there is no limit for creative ideas ...

Fabian
PS: I hope this explains now the strange behaviour of 2.6 for all of you
trying ...
