Summary:  Print loaded Linux kernel version

Original Submission:  It would be nice if the loaded Linux kernel version was 
printed in the kernel blurb.

Patch suggestion attached.

grub> kernel /vmlinuz
   [Linux-bzImage 2.4.18-3 (address@hidden) #1 Thu Apr 18 07:3
7:53 EDT 2002, setup=0x1400, size=0xfa203]


The patch also moves the printout of the kernel blurb before the zImage 
validation, allowing one to see what it was that did not fit..

I don't see why it is so useful, because I always name
kernel images with version numbers. Also, I feel it too
verbose.

Of course, that's my subjectivity. So I don't object,
if many people agree with you.

Thanks,
Okuji

No comments on this one? Still using it and find it quite helpful when dealing 
with different kernel versions etc..
