  • Hi Widic,

    > elevator=noop
    this sets the kernel to use "Noop" I/O scheduler:
    en.wikipedia.org/.../Noop_scheduler

    > rootwait
    the kernel will wait (indefinitely) for root device to show up. Useful for devices that are detected asynchronously (e.g. USB and MMC devices).

    > earlyprintk
    Enables early boot messages

    > fixrtc
    fixrtc is related to RTC SS. The kernel option 'fixrtc' exists to set the system time from the last mount time from the rootfs, check here for more details:
    e2e.ti.com/.../2233487

    > omapdrm.num_crtc=2
    Number of CRTCs:
    e2e.ti.com/.../2233603

    > consoleblank=0
    Disables console blanking

    > cma=128M@0xB0000000
    Sets the size of kernel global memory area for contiguous memory allocations and optionally the
    placement constraint by the physical address range of memory allocations. A value of 0 disables CMA
    altogether. For more information, see include/linux/dma-contiguous.h

    > rootfstype=ext4
    Set root filesystem type
