Kernel parameters while installing FC

[Marcin Szarek]

Hi it's me again ;)

Could you tell me where could I find complete list of kernel parameters
which one can use on fedora installer boot prompt? There are options
which aren't listed on F2-F4 help screens (like "xfs")...

Regards,

If you already have FCx installed somewhere then look in:

/usr/share/doc/kernel-doc-2.6.10/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt

Otherwise google for kernel-parameters.txt.  Look for a file relative to
the kernel version you're trying to install.  I think FC3 was 2.6.9.

Not all of these parameters are kernel parameters. "ide=nodma" or
"pci=noacpi" are kernel parameters while "xfs" or "reiserfs" are
anaconda parameters.
I am not sure whether someone made the work and gathered all these
parameters in a list and posted it last year on the list. A search would
be necessary. At least I remember the question already arose in the past
here on the list.
