My Kingdom for a Command Line!

I need to disable a drive in Linux (the BIOS hides it, but the kernel is 'too smart'). I searched high and low for "linux kernel command line" etc, etc.

Anyway, what I was looking for: 

hdb=noprobe

From: ​http://linux.about.com/library/cmd/blcmdl7_bootparam.htm

One of my 3 Linux boxes has that man page. The other 2 DON'T. That, and it seems ancient but helpful nonetheless.
