## Kernel Parameters
Kernel parameters are XTOS boot-time options used to ensure proper initialization and handling of hardware peripherals.
These parameters can be configured either temporarily by editing the boot entry in the bootloader’s selection menu, or
permanently by modifying the XTLDR configuration file.
The following is a consolidated list of available kernel parameters:
* **NOXPA**: Disables PAE or LA57 support, depending on the CPU architecture. This parameter is handled by the
bootloader, which configures paging and selects the appropriate Page Map Level (PML) before transferring control to
the kernel.
## Source Code
