Why modify grub.cfg?

I have symlinks in /boot

vmlinuz -> vmlinuz-3.1.0-gentoo
and
vmlinuz.old -> vmlinuz-3.1.0-rc6-00105-g279b1e0

who automagic get updated when ever I run make install.

The corresponding part of grub.conf is

title Gentoo Linux (OpenRC)
        root (hd0,1)
        kernel /vmlinuz root=/dev/sda3 radeon.agpmode=-1
video=radeon:1440x900 zcache

and

title Gentoo Linux.old (OpenRC)
        root (hd0,1)
        kernel /vmlinuz.old root=/dev/sda3 radeon.agpmode=-1
video=radeon:1440x900 zcache

That is all, no changing grub.conf and always the latest kernel.

Greetings

Sebastian
