This procedure is not distro specific.
In grub.cfg, linux line *must* appear before the initrd line, else
grub will complain about it.
Example (Grub2):
menuentry "Linux Custom Kernel" {
set root=(hd0,1)
linux /vmlinuz-custom root=/dev/disk/by-label/Root ro
initrd /initrd-custom.img
}
Example (Grub1):
title "Linux Custom Kernel"
root (hd0,1)
kernel /vmlinuz-custom root=/dev/disk/by-label/Root ro
initrd /initrd-custom.img
