I think I may be getting somewhere.  I got into Grub (Grub 2 uses shift).
 I was presented with the option to edit the entries.  Now I am presented
with a screen:

setparms ' Ubuntu, with Linux 3.0.0-19-generic'

recordfail
set gfxpayload=$linux_gfx_mode
insmod gzzio
insmod part_msdos
...
initrd /boot/initrd.img-3.0.0-19-generic


Where do I had the "text"?  In the first line setparms..., or in the body
of the commands, or in that last line?

Thanks
-Denis
