Dave,
You need the i686 kernel and not the i586 kernel.
Make your grub.conf look like this (leave all the remarked stuff, that
begins with #, alone) :
default=1
timeout=5
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
hiddenmenu
title CentOS 4.0 (2.6.9-5.0.3.EL)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-5.0.3.EL ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb quiet
initrd /initrd-2.6.9-5.0.3.EL.img
title CentOS 4 (2.6.9-11.EL)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-11.EL ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb quiet
initrd /initrd-2.6.9-11.EL.img
#-----------------------------------------------
If, for some reason the new kernel doesn't boot, shift to default=0 in
grub.conf.
