Tell me what this fastboot command would do

fastboot oem append-cmdline "androidboot.unlocked_kernel=true"

It is referenced in the fire rooting guide, seems harmless?

I just opened the root.bat from the other method in the 5.0.1 page and pasted the cmds manually in a cmd prompt seems to have worked as I can use a terminal emulator and enter 'su' and get Superuser prompt I believe it is/was more or less this You will need the root_fire.zip from the other thread, and then open a command window in the folder where you extract those files.
