OK, that did indeed work.  I should really have guessed that since I had
read the patch that renamed the file!

Anyway, on machines it works I see (in red)

Found command line "...my command line..."
Using command line "...my command line..."

And on machines it doesn't work on I see ...

Found command line ""
Using command line ""

I hope that helps.

I am assuming that GRUB does indeed set up the command line correctly,
as we use it to boot into single user Linux, etc.

Cheers,

Kenny.
