Thank you for this! I managed to boot Linux Mint 18.1 with quiet splash removed and i915.fastboot=1 added.
(EDIT: removed the video parameter as I don't seem to need it, after all)

I noticed the screen won't turn and I have't tried installing but at least now there's a way to use GParted for e.g. enlarging the sailfishos partition size if needed.
