By default, this stick boots a root Linux partition on $ROOT_DEVICE when you hit ENTER. If you'd like to boot some other partition, use a command like this on the prompt below: mount root=/dev/sda1 ro Where "/dev/sda1" is the partition you want to boot, and "ro" specifies that the partition should be initially mounted as read-only. If you wish to mount the partition read-write, use "rw" instead. To set the video console mode, use the vga= parameter (press F1 to see a table). You may also add any other kernel parameters you might need depending on your hardware, and which drivers are included in your kernel.
