So if I understand correctly something like:

title  Gentoo linux (update)
 root (hd0,0)
 kernel /kernel-genkernel-x86-2.6.12-gentoo-r4 root=/dev/hda11 
init=/linuxrc video=vesafb:1024x768-32@72 splash=verbose

should produce desired results (i.e. bootable system)?
If yes - I've got quite a few error messages about missing symbols in 
kernel modules on boot :( But I've tries so many combinations already 
that it could've been attributed to other changes I've made. So I'll 
try it again and come back if problem persists (or if you'll tell me 
my assumptions are wrong).
