I like to make one comment on the sentence "to your boot line".
The change is rather simple, but it took me a lot off time to get to the right place.
I did know something about the grub.conf, but could not find it in the first place. After some searching I rebooted my PC with the live-CD of Ubuntu 11.10, but Ubuntu did not show up (I installed my PC with this CD-rom). Then I decided to start with an old Fedora 14 live-CD. I could reach my harddisk and mount it. I could get to the grub.conf file, but it was read-only. This was easy to change with chmod. Finally I added the extra parameter and rebooted.
My conclussion: I find it strange that a solution is rather simple. We could wonder why it takes such an effort to perform it.
Thanks to your knowledge my problem is solved.
Kind regards, Erik
