You're likely going to be better served on a distro-specific list. In my case (Gentoo) the file edited to give me boot options is /boot/grub/grub.conf which is not what you attached. I don't have the file on my system but maybe your disto calls it something else. Anyway, the contents of what you showed are quite different from the way we do it on Gentoo.
