So I thought it would be a GRUB problem, because if I use the grub shell
with following commands, I can actually boot into the new kernel:
set prefix=(hd0,msdos1)/grub/
set root=(hd0,msdos3)
insmod linux
insmod normal

And then choose to boot the newly created entry.
So ok, but here are a

Sorry for top posting.
Yes /dev/sda1 was mounted when I installed the kernel.
Here is an example of how the boot entry looks, while I boot (abbreviated).

Ok guys,
I fixed my problem.
I just build a new kernel with genkernel (/boot partion was mounted) and
also created a new grub.cfg.
Now everything is set correctly. I also set a background for grub and
the right resolution. Looks great now!
Thanks for helping me :D
Greetings.
