 * root		(hd0,0)
 * kernel	(h0,0)/2.6.12.3-vs2.0-rc8 root=/dev/hda6 vga=0x318

 * Don't forget to remerge depending packages (e.g. ipw2100, alsa-driver, nvidia-kernel, qemu, ...)
 * since, you changed to a new kernel. This requires you to rebuild those modules
 * To do so, type 'emerge DRIVER-NAME' and you should be fine.

 * Finished.
