| Qi itself does (almost) nothing more but initialize hardware and
starts linux.

Right, but there's another way, just hold in the power button until
Linux finishes being loaded by Qi.

Qi will then append loglevel=8 automatically.  I think that's what
happened here randomly to Leonti.  (console=tty0 is already in there by
default).
