Including module parameters in a boot configuration
Module parameters for modules that are required early during the boot process must be included in the boot configuration.
About this task
Your distribution might use an initial RAM disk when
booting. Follow these steps to provide module parameters for modules
that are included in an initial RAM disk:
- Make your configuration changes with the tools that your distribution provides.
- Using the tools that your Linux distribution provides, recreate the initial RAM disk to include the module parameters.
- Run zipl to include the new RAM disk in your boot configuration.
The distribution tools might run mkinitrd and zipl for you when saving changes you have made.
