turns out is a display problem (pxelinux - I dont use syslinux)
- the kernel boot-line sees it (Ive patched my kernel to 511)
I suspect this has never worked, as its never been needed with current 
kernel limit.

BTW - you said a while back that larger command_line_boot-lines were
causing some problems somewhere.  Is that still the case ?

Ive been using this, no problems so far.
