Why didn't the old syntax work? (separate partition for /boot)

When it worked from the command line of grub?

To be honest, I'm not sure.  Can you try something like this:

root (hd0,1)
title Gentoo Linux 2.6.16-gentoo-r13
   kernel /kernel-2.6.16-gentoo-r13 root=/dev/hda6

Notice:
1. the space after "root"
2. that root is now a 'global' setting
3. technically it is not "title=foo", but "title foo".

If I had to make a guess, I suspect the space between root and the
device specification is the important change.
