I believe this was the line in menu.lst to set the accompanying frame
buffer resolution for booting.

The line is just mkinitrd.  -s manually sets the resolution.  There are
other switches you could use, i.e. -k for kernel name, -i for initrd
name, etc.  I'm not sure but I think it may check menu.lst or maybe
something else to see what your frame buffer is set for, and
automatically use that for the -s resolution if not specified.  BTW, are
you sure your card supports a 1600x1200 frame buffer?
