Comment(by sdz):

 To submit the hardware information, using the effort I started a month or
 so ago would be helpful
 (http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_on_a_Stick/Hardware). But note that
 shipping with kernel mode setting has been a decision made by the Fedora
 folks upstream, so that it's really hard for us to revert it (and we'd
 also loose our boot screen). The best solution here would be to create a
 custom spin, either using the instructions I linked to in the release
 notes (http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_on_a_Stick/Customization). Those
 are partly incomplete, so erikos' blog post from above might also be
 helpful. Maybe daveb knows where this would need to be added (sorry,
 there's some file which provides the kernel parameters, but I'm not sure
 which one it is)...
