With os11.2 I had to patch the resume= parameter on every kernel update (because it was always lost) and often could not suspend to disk because I simply forgot about it seeking for the error in a totally different place and thus wasting lots of precious time. This time with os11.3 I have to set the nomodeset parameter, have remebered wrong about it (as modeset or modset=0) and thus another time wasted huge amounts of time. The bug does not seem to serious but it provides a true utterly annoying hazard. Please fix this before the release of os11.3! It should not be a great deal, at least to keep all parameters behind the final runlevel stating (5 or 3, usually). The parameters there can only having been entered by a user.
