I installed the realtime kernel 2.6.31-rt but I can't figure out how to add it to grub menu list. I dont think I can just edit grubs menu.lst and add it as It has a uid nmbers and letters in it. Under Debian when you instal a kernel old or newer it adds it to grub with update-grub.

root (hd0,1)
kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/f382344e-3bc9-45f2-a423-3b936416e001 ro
initrd /kernel26.img
Is ther a option to set the number of kernels grub shows to more than the main and fallback ones? How do I get the real time kernel to show up ??

You have to understand what the numbers and letters mean, all easy from there
It's grub legacy, just edit menu-lst.
root (hd0,1): partition where kernel and images are, all further paths are relative to that
kernel: path to the kernel (if boot was not a seperate partition, you would have to prefix with /boot/ here)
root=: your / partition, defined by uuid
initrd: path to initramfs image
for more complete info, check the wiki or google.

So that Uuid number..."f382344e-3bc9-45f2-a423-3b936416e001". That is constant no matter what kernel it is. It is not something that is generated for each kernel and it is different? I can just make a new entry and use that uuid and change the kernel img and intird??

yep, uuid is just defining what your root partition is, and doesn't change

copy/paste the existing entries, change the title and filenames, ???, profit!
