I unmounted /boot and there was nothing there.  I'll remove that extra
/boot but I doubt it will matter.  After all, it just symlinks to
itself.  At least mine does here anyway.  ;-)

As to the kernel, it boots the exact same kernel.  That is the only
kernel I have for that version.  If grub was pointing to anything else,
it wouldn't be there to even try to boot.

What should I add to fstab for /dev?  This is a desktopy rig.

Thanks.
