So I installed CentOS 4.6 in addition to my Windows XP install and ran some updates, and I notice that there are four lines for 4 different Linux Kernels and 1 for Windows XP.

Why isn't there just 1 entry for CentOS? I don't even know which one to choose.

Thanks.
 
You should probably choose the first entry, especially if you see the line "default 0" in the beginning of the file. The other entries are probably for recovery and single user mode and other things like that, and you'll most likely not be needing them. It would be safe to comment them out if you don't want to look at them.
 
In addition to things like failsafe mode you might have entries for an older kernel version. If this is the case, once you are certain that the new kernel is working right for you, you can comment out the entries for the old kernel or even uninstall it.
