You have to write an entry in /etc/multiboot.d/

I think. I can't remember right now. Why do you need it? They're both very similar and you don't get the option by default as it isn't really needed anymore

But if you want a boot option save the folllowing text in /etc/multiboot.d as 9-maemoomap.item :
ITEM_NAME="Maemo 2.6.28-omap1"
ITEM_KERNEL=2.6.28-omap1
ITEM_MODULES=ext3



to be extra cleat the file path is etc/multiboot.detc/multiboot.d/9-maemoomap1.item
