Currently I've got it > fixed up in the Red Hat tree by bumping COMMAND_LINE_SIZE to 2048 and > eliminating the reserved buffer of the x86_linux_faked_param_header, which works > well, but isn't backwards compatible as Bernhard pointed out.

Does that sound reasonable to everyone, or is there > a better way that someone has in mind? For bzImage we can take the size in the header (that's also better for the future). Bernhard
