Grub boot screen does not provide kernel version number for Fedora partitions



Hello, 

on my harddisk is installed Fedora Core Release 2 and Debian rc2. 

Grub had detected the kernels of the Red Hat partition correctl, however
on the Grubs boot screen all Fedora kernels are shown with the identical
name "Fedora Core Release 2 (Tettnang) (on /dev/hda2)" that does not
indicate the kernel version.

See attached screenshot had been created with the boot loader
administration tool on debian.

I would very much appreciate, if grub could indiacte the kernel version
also for Red Hat partitions in a simialr way, as it is done for Debian.

Br, 
Michael
