Passing Kernel Arguments
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Depending on the barebox configuration (``CONFIG_FLEXIBLE_BOOTARGS``) there
-are to ways to pass bootargs to the Kernel. With ``CONFIG_FLEXIBLE_BOOTARGS``
-disabled the bootm command takes the bootargs from the ``bootargs`` environment
-variable. With ``CONFIG_FLEXIBLE_BOOTARGS`` enabled the bootargs are composed
-from different :ref:`global_device` variables. All variables beginning with
