This then is as I suspected.......

You are not editing the menu.lst that is involved with the boot.

When you boot again...   do the 'edit' procedure and edit the kernel line (or 
the initrd line) and take a look at where those files are located.  They are 
probably on a different partition than the one you are editing.

(or else your menu.lst  is farkeled but I doubt that)
