It has never worked. -append is used only with preloaded Linux kernel
, it is not passed to the boot loader. Please use -prom-env, for
example -prom-env 'boot-args=linux single'.
Also -nographic is passed to OpenBIOS which switches prom console to
serial, so it is not necessary to use 'console=xxx' or 'video=xxx'
options. Linux uses prom console before switching to its own console
functions.
