Comment 4 for bug 542208

Which line are we supposed to add it on, just to be sure? Is it the one with
linux and splash or the one with initrd?

On the one with initrd, there was no effect.

On the one with linux, ro and splash, Adding it changes my framebuffer font
go away and the ubuntu loader logo disappeared. No X.

Is there any commands/documents I can look at to retrieve more logs for you?
