Grub and System.map

Well, in the grub.conf you specify which kernel to use... if your System.map has the same ending on it (notice my example in the last post) the system would know that way. 

Although if you have multiple kernels with different filenames, only one System.map, and everything is working fine, then I'm thinking it's not that important.

Example:

vmlinuz-2.4.22-1.2115.nptlsmp
System.map-2.4.22-1.2115.nptlsmp
