You are correct it does not. It does say modify /boot//grub/menu.lst.
My menu.lst for 2.4.2:
#
# /boot/grub/menu.lst - generated by Lizard
#
# options
timeout = 5
splashscreen = (hd0,1)/boot/message.col24
default = 0
title = Linux
root = (hd0,1)
kernel = /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.2-modular vga=274 quiet root=/dev/hda1
initrd = /boot/initrd-2.4.2.gz
now menu.lst
#
# /boot/grub/menu.lst - generated by Lizard
#
# options
timeout = 5
splashscreen = (hd0,1)/boot/message.col24
default = 0
title = Linux
root = (hd0,1)
kernel = /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.6 vga=274 quiet root=/dev/hda1
#kernel = /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.2-modular vga=274 quiet root=/dev/hda1 commented
out
initrd = /boot/initrd-2.4.6.gz
#initrd = /boot/initrd-2.4.2.gz commented out

my problem maybe in the modules to compile into the kernel.
