to the command line based on whether the boot console is full
(ttyS0, serial) or half (tty0, graphics) duplex. Also adds sti=
and sti_font= if they're missing.
* PALO header version is now 3. Can store both a 32 and a 64-bit kernel
in the F0/sequential/CDROM formats.
* When booting from F0/sequential/CDROM PALO guesses the 32/64-ness
by asking firmware if the user doesn't specify 0/vmlinux64 or 0/vmlinux32.
On boxes which support both 32 and 64, 32 is chosen.
* If no TERM= in kernel cmd line, when guessing serial/sti, add TERM=vt102
for former and TERM=linux for latter.
* Print boot command line even in non-interactive mode.
