I didn't know that pressing 'a' repeatedly will get you to the kernel command prompt. The problem with a lot of these changes is that they break techniques that people have used for many years. And if you don't know that the pressing 'a' trick exists, you don't know how to ask how to do it -- especially if your computer doesn't boot.
