Could someone post the default cmdline.txt file as of the current version?

Why? By the time you have configured the Pi it will have changed, and by default does nothing. Just run raspi-config and set to your needs. If you want to see probable contents see raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/config-txt/…– MilliwaysCommented Jan 2, 2019 at 4:41

1Also note the discrepancy between title and text: do you want to know the default config.txt or cmdline.txt?– DirkCommented Jan 2, 2019 at 10:33

Here's my cmdline.txt file from my 3B+ stretch RPi:
dwc_otg.lpm_enable=0 console=tty1 console=serial0,115200 root=PARTUUID=bb8517b1-02 rootfstype=ext4 elevator=deadline fsck.repair=yes rootwait
AFAIK, this is the "default"; at least I've never edited it directly.

1But each download (the current 3 images) and NOOBS will differ and will differ from earlier images so copying this may result in an unbootable OS. Commented Jan 2, 2019 at 11:04

1@Milliways: He asked a specific question, I answered as best I could. I've assumed he knows what he's doing. If I'm wrong, then he has an unbootable OS, and he has to d/l & write another image to his SD. Not the end of the world.– SeamusCommented Jan 2, 2019 at 18:16

Thanks Seamus. In fact, I could have done that very thing to get the original back as well, but I wished to avoid that. As it turned out, I was able to learn what I needed about the root=PARTUUID= section, and look up the UUID and manually correct it. I have been trying to get the Pi to boot from a hard drive, but no joy due to it taking longer than the 5 seconds available to come alive. Appreciate the help, and info. Good to know too Milliways.– patrickCommented Jan 4, 2019 at 2:02

@user3230518: "learning"... that's always a great word to hear! As far as your inability to boot from a HDD: I think you should be able to do this, but you may need something more than an entry in
/boot/cmdline.txt. Have you looked at this instruction on booting RPi from a HDD?– SeamusCommented Jan 4, 2019 at 17:08 -
Actually, I got it to work finally. It was easier to just have the boot and root partitions on that HD rather than boot on the SD. Works great now. Thanks for the assistance.– patrickCommented Jan 5, 2019 at 19:58
