installer options by default do not have the -- portion. Therefore the 
correct boot line is, as Rex already pointed out, 'linux upgradeany'

The reason why it worked for you, is that this specific test is done by 
looking for the 'upgradeany' string on the command line, anywhere, in 
any format. Here is the actual sniplet of code where this eval is done

" if ((cmdline.find("upgradeany") != -1) "

hence, you lucked out.
