If you want to append additional parameters to the kernel command line,
configure it via GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT or GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX in
/etc/default/grub.
If you want to add further entries to the grub boot menu, that can be
handled by a script in /etc/grub.d/ (see the README in that directory).
