The Linux command line is parsed to discover C<guestfs_*> flags.
The Linux command line is parsed to discover C<guestfs_*> flags. The
following flags are understood:
=over 4
=item B<guestfs_verbose=1>
Enable verbose messages. This flag is passed by the libguestfs
library to the appliance to make the daemon more verbose (it acts like
the I<-v> flag on the command line). Unrelated to the daemon, it also
causes the appliance init script to print out a lot more debugging
information.
=item B<guestfs_channel=PATH>
Set the path to the virtio-serial channel to something other than the
default (which is C</dev/virtio-ports/org.libguestfs.channel.0>).
This is used by the User-Mode Linux backend to use a regular emulated
serial port instead of virtio-serial.
