   * ''​telnet''​ will start a telnet session at boot time. This can be handy to fix your system before SSH has started. Telnet will be stopped when SSH has been started.   * ''​telnet''​ will start a telnet session at boot time. This can be handy to fix your system before SSH has started.

   * ''​vnc''​ will start VNC server at boot time if VNC stuff has been included in initramfs.

 +  * ''​modules-load=module1=param=value,​module2...''​ this parameter allows loading kernel modules without the need of adding them to /​etc/​modules file or adding a conf file into one of the supported modules-load.d/​ folders. Format is as follows (modules are separated by comma, params by colon): ''​modules-load=moduleA[=paramA1=valueA1[:​parmA2=valueA2][:​...]]][,​moduleB[=paramB1=valueB1]'',​ for example ''​modules-load=bridge,​em28xx=disable_ir=1:​i2c_scan=100:​core_debug=1:​reg_debug=0''​
  
 A ad-hoc rescue mode exists since version Beta 1. This add the possibility to trigger a ''​rescue''​-like shell by holding down the shift key during boot with an USB attached keyboard. This is possible even with ''​splash''​ as default parameter in cmdline.txt. The shell console is restored during this rescue mode. However, ''​mod_scsi.scan=sync''​ is recommended as opposite to the default ''​mod_scsi.scan=async'',​ because the initramfs phase finish faster then USB devices appear to the system. A ad-hoc rescue mode exists since version Beta 1.

 You can use ''​init=/​bin/​bash''​ instead of running ''​init=/​sbin/​init''​. The default ''​init''​ is used to start loading services and mount filesystems. When you use ''​init=/​bin/​bash'',​ bash will get the first pid, the rootfs will be at ''/'',​ and the ''/​proc'',​ ''/​run'',​ ''/​sys'',​ ''/​dev''​ will be mounted and populated. All console applications should start normally. However, typing ''​exit''​ to continue booting no longer works, but if you want to continue with the normal boot process, you can type ''​exec /​sbin/​init''​. You can use ''​init=/​bin/​bash''​ instead of running ''​init=/​sbin/​init''​.
