################################################################################ # TACPI DControl ACPI module behaviour $acpi_load The ACPI driver provides support for the Advanced Configuration and Power Management standard. The ACPI kernel module is by default loaded automatically. If the acpi_load variable is set, the ACPI module will be loaded. The ACPI driver can be disabled with: lunset acpi_load set hint.acpi.0.disabled=1 Note that the ACPI autodetection sets a number of hints to pass information to the ACPI module. These should not be overridden, or system behaviour will be undefined. See acpi.4 man page (on booted system) for full description. ################################################################################ # Treboot DReboot the system reboot Causes the system to immediately reboot. ################################################################################ # Tbcachestat DDisplay disk block cache stats bcachestat Display disk block cache stats. For debugging use only. ################################################################################ # Theap DDisplay memory management statistics heap Requests debugging output from the heap manager. For debugging use only. ################################################################################ # Tset Snum_ide_disks DSet the number of IDE disks NOTE: this variable is deprecated, use root_disk_unit instead. set num_ide_disks= When booting from a SCSI disk on a system with one or more IDE disks, and where the IDE disks are the default boot device, it is necessary to tell the kernel how many IDE disks there are in order to have it correctly locate the SCSI disk you are booting from. ################################################################################ # Tset Sroot_disk_unit DForce the root disk unit number. set root_disk_unit= If the code which detects the disk unit number for the root disk is confused, e.g. by a mix of SCSI and IDE disks, or IDE disks with gaps in the sequence (i.e. no primary slave), the unit number can be forced by setting this variable. See also vfs.root.mountfrom variable, under `set tunables' help item. ################################################################################
