it does have an entry in menu.lst on suse.

he posted the menu.lst before, it included 

title Gentoo Linux 2004.1
    root (hd0,5)
    kernel (hd0,5)/boot/kernel-2.6.5-gentoo root=/dev/hda6 
    systemmap (hd0,5)/boot/System.map-2.6.5-gentoo
#    initrd (hd0,5)/boot/initrd
    chainloader +1

once he comments out the systemmap and chainloader entries he should be
right (crosses fingers).
