Concise and the meaning is clear. Hi Andrew, good idea heheh Thank you and all that reviewed the grammar/wording, certainly I can change that and resubmit. > > > Why do we need the kernel boot parameter?

But if it's a problem for you, I can remove the kernel parameter, your choice. Cheers, Guilherme
