How can I get the list of all the possible kernel parameters which are supported by the actual kernel?

    I doubt it is possible to get this list because the kernel simply ignores parameters it does not know and makes them available to the init process, and because the kernel is expanded by modules which it might know nothing about until the module is loaded (ie any parameter with a "." in the parameter name) - and of-course, modules can be compiled after the kernel is running.

  • Ahh, I see. I am experimenting with the "failsafe" parameter, which is supported by AntiX, but I don't know if my ArchLinux32 system does support it.

  • I don't think that's a standard kernel command - according to Antix documentation its equivalent to load=all blacklist=VIDEO from=all xorg=safe

  • You might want to post about the problem you are trying to solve rather then an abstraction of how the kernel behaves (but I applaud your obvious efforts to understand things and solve the problem yourself)

    Have you considered a failing power supply as a possible source? This sounds very much like a blown cap somewhere, and PSUs are a prime candidate.
