Argument passing is per-arch. On PPC32, you can set CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL=y and then set a cmdline to use. If you're using PPCBoot on your board, there's another way to do it, without recompiling the kernel. -- Tom Rini (TR1265) http://gate.crashing.org/~trini/ ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
