Yes both work. as well as what I decided to use |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
kernel (hd0.1)/kernel-2.6.16-gentoo-r13 root=/dev/hda6 |
| 15 |

I like keeping the explicit kernel nanes around because |
| 17 |
I test many different things across many different systems, |
| 18 |
so as to not confuse myself and track kernel versions with |
| 19 |
various patches and drivers. |

Why didn't the old syntax work? (separate partition for /boot) |
| 22 |
kernel /kernel-2.6.16-gentoo-r13 |
| 23 |
When it worked from the command line of grub? |
| 24 |
It's also the syntax I use on many other systems. |
