How to set noapic and pnpbios=off parameters for boot

Question

I have a weird laptop, that, long story short, must have these 2 parameters set for it to boot:

pnpbios=off
noapic

How to I tell grub to utilize these every time it boots?

Edit your GRUB configuration file e.g. using the command

sudo nano /etc/default/grub

Add those two parameters to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT, so that it looks like this:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash pnpbios=off noapic"

Then update GRUB's configuration using the command

sudo update-grub
