Edit your boot loader du jour, e.g.: grub:
On the /kernel line, append the options with a space in between and boot
:--0

I am currently using lilo:

image=/boot/vmlinuz
        label="linux"
        root=/dev/hda7
        initrd=/boot/initrd.img
        append="devfs=mount pci=noacpi"
        vga=788
        read-only
