Grub to run non-default kernel ONCE

Hi folks -

Just yummed a remote server from FC1 to FC2, went smoothly so far.  The 2.6 
kernel for FC2 is installed and I would normally reboot at this point and see 
how she goes.

However, this server is VERY remote.  Is there a way I can request that GRUB 
try my new kernel ONCE, then if it reboots or is rebooted, comes back up in 
the default (2.4) kernel?

I googled and found some kind of cryptic command in the GRUB shell, but I 
wonder if there is anything I can stick in /boot/grub/grub.conf?

TIA

- -Andy
