All module options can be specified on the kernel command line (see the top of kernel-parameters.txt): The following is a consolidated list of the kernel parameters as implemented (mostly) by the __setup() macro and sorted into English Dictionary order (defined as ignoring all punctuation and sorting digits before letters in a case insensitive manner), and with descriptions where known. Module parameters for loadable modules are specified only as the parameter name with optional '=' and value as appropriate, such as: modprobe usbcore blinkenlights=1 Module parameters for modules that are built into the kernel image are specified on the kernel command line with the module name plus '.' plus parameter name, with '=' and value if appropriate, such as: usbcore.blinkenlights=1 This facilitates specifying these options on boot when modules are built in.
