I generally disagree with this. I like the "be as smart as ew can" part, but after that it goes sour. Accept that you can't know the right parameters for hardware. Make it configurable via some sort of "free form field". Other thing to note here, is we want kernel parameters for a node to copy to the installer's preseed. so that after the installer the system boots with those parameters. Example: I just did an install where I hacked the cmdline of the ephemeral/commissioning and install via modifying config.commissioning.template and config.install.template I added 'console=ttyS1,115200'. Those parameters at least possibly should make it into the preseed data so that the install also gets them. At the moment that doesn't happen. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1044503 Title: kernel command line is not easily customizable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/maas/+bug/1044503/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
