I've written scripts do copy any useful piece of (debug) info to
/boot. To cope with MILO, you can use:

[jbglaw@air:/home/jbglaw] $> sed '/.*bootfile=\([^ ]*\).*/s//\1/' </proc/cmdline
vmlinuz-2.4.0-test8-pre1--00

and

[jbglaw@air:/home/jbglaw] $> sed '/.*bootdevice=\([^ ]*\).*/s//\1/' </proc/cmdline
sda1
