Did you set the proper partition as bootable/active?
Also, I'd recommend this (assuming the files exist):
DEFAULT linux1
LABEL linux1
# kernel image
LINUX bzImage
# initial ramdisk to boot a small liinux system on a USB
INITRD initrd
As your first proposal shouldn't parse appropriately. Also look at
the TIMEOUT and PROMPT directives. Note that directives are
capitalized/indented only for clarity.
