Maybe a combined one which shows some other stuff (init > level, init shell, apic settings) etc from command line. > In your response, all the people copied on the mail got removed.

Not very sure what do you mean by displaying init level, and init shell and how that stuff is related to this parameter. Thanks Vivek
