You can actually change the optional boot parameters from the Grub menu. Before your highlighted selection is actually activated (ie, before countdown reaches zero), highlight the entry you want using the up/down arrow keys on your keyboard. When your entry is highlighted, press 'E' (short for Edit). I can't remember off the top of my head, but if the 'E' key doesn't work, try 'C'... But I am sure it's 'E' button to open the edit menu. Then a window pops up with the raw grub entry. Go to the line that has your boot options in it and make your changes. Then press CTRL+X to close that window and the system will automatically boot using the temporary options you've entered. On Thu, Dec 20, 2012 at 2:09 PM, Carlos F.

No, don't do that, there is risk of an unbootable system.
No more risk than happens when simply doing ordinary updates, if using the complete instruction set I wrote instead of the subset you quoted.
I am not worried. Worst case I would have to reinstall with the old Grub. These are all freshly installed 12.2 systems and the important data is safely (and backed up) stored in the separate /home partition.
