Here is the content of the "help files":
Generally I just document the "boot cheat codes" that are already in the CPUstress image.
They are in the /help/syslinux/ folder in my cpustress-2.1expl6 archive.

You can press [TAB] to edit the boot options in isolinux.
For CPU Burn-in, you can specify the time it runs by using either 'days',
'hours', or 'minutes' option. By default, CPU Burn-in runs for 7 days
(=10080 minutes), which is equivalent to this:
> .com32 linux.c32 /pmagic/bzImage root=/dev/ram0 ramdisk_size=12000 noapic
quiet ubcdcmd=cpuburn initrd=/ubcd/boot/cpustress/initrd.gz days=7
If more than one of the time options are specified, the run time will be
determined by the value of larger unit (days > hours > minutes) and the rest
are ignored.
For Mesenne Prime Test, you can run the older v23.9.2 instead of v27.9 by
replacing "mprime27" with "mprime23" in the 'ubcdcmd' option:
> .com32 linux.c32 /pmagic/bzImage root=/dev/ram0 ramdisk_size=12000 noapic
quiet ubcdcmd=mprime23 initrd=/ubcd/boot/cpustress/initrd.gz
<< Press [F2] to continue to next page, any other key to return to menu >>

You can press [TAB] to edit the boot options in isolinux.
For Stress and StressCPU, you may pass the command-line arguments to the
program by using the 'cmdstress' and 'cmdstresscpu2' options respectively in isolinux. Examples:
> .com32 linux.c32 /pmagic/bzImage root=/dev/ram0 ramdisk_size=12000 noapic
quiet ubcdcmd=stress cmdstress="--quiet -c 1k"
initrd=/ubcd/boot/cpustress/initrd.gz
> .com32 linux.c32 /pmagic/bzImage root=/dev/ram0 ramdisk_size=12000 noapic
quiet ubcdcmd=stresscpu2 cmdstresscpu2="-s -t 48:00:00"
initrd=/ubcd/boot/cpustress/initrd.gz
For more information, please run the helpinfo program in the CPUstress image.
You can run helpinfo directly from isolinux by specifying 'ubcdcmd=helpinfo':
> .com32 linux.c32 /pmagic/bzImage root=/dev/ram0 ramdisk_size=12000 noapic
quiet ubcdcmd=helpinfo initrd=/ubcd/boot/cpustress/initrd.gz
<< Press [F1] to return to previous page, any other key to return to menu >>
