Displaying the current kernel parameter line

Read /proc/cmdline to find out with which kernel parameters a running Linux instance was booted.

About this task

Apart from kernel parameters, which are evaluated by the Linux kernel, the kernel parameter line can contain parameters that are evaluated by user space programs, for example, modprobe.

Example:

# cat /proc/cmdline
root=UUID=93722c3c-85ed-4537-ac68-8528a5bdef0c hvc_iucv=8 TERM=dumb OsaMedium=eth crashkernel=204M-:102M
