This has been seen in this list as people have added hdd's which had a /boot partition on them and newer updated kernels would be placed in the new /boot (because it is added after boot-up) and then that kernel is not available next boot. (Fun, huh!) Interestingly, the last time I added a 3rd distro the / partition was named /12 adding the 2 to the last / partition. For kicks I added a fourth, and sure enough, it was named /123. This was back around FC2 - so it may be different now.
