Just going through the ancient bugs in flash-kernel and this is another
one I'm *fairly* sure was fixed at some point in the history (although
I'm unsure when). Anyway, the supported mechanism for injecting
parameters into the kernel cmdline via flash-kernel is to edit the
LINUX_KERNEL_CMDLINE or LINUX_KERNEL_CMDLINE_DEFAULTS parameters in
/etc/default/flash-kernel.
During its run flash-kernel *should* incorporate anything specified in
these variables into the kernel command line, typically by substituting
these values into the u-boot script prior to running mkimage.
There are a few cases where this *doesn't* happen, but they're largely
limited to those cases not using u-boot (the "Method: pi" case I added
is one such example, although there the kernel command line is a
trivially editable text file on the boot partition and I didn't want
people being surprised by their customization being overwritten so it
was a deliberate choice). Alternatively, there are some u-boot scripts
in f-k that don't contain the necessary substitution points.
Given this bug hasn't seen any activity for 8 years, and I'm fairly sure
it's fixed I'll set this to "Fix Released" but please set it back to
"New" if this is still an issue for you (and the aforementioned
variables in /etc/default/flash-kernel don't work in your case)!
** Changed in: flash-kernel (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Fix Released
