The new genkernel requires a different grub.conf | lilo.conf setting. This needs to be incorporated asap. However, many LiveCDs still contain the old genkernel (more precisely those who install genkernel using GRP packages) so those instructions cannot disappear just yet.

The patch should take care of it, but i'd rather have someone review it quickly for me...
