Issue

I found that the grub config for grsec kernel was incorrect and couldn't boot. Upon attempting to send a pull request I see that it is corrected in the git repo but is not reflected in the doc.

Suggested Fix

Update doc with corrected grub.cfg replacing '-grsec' with '-hardened' as:

set root=(hd0)
set default="Alpine Linux"
set timeout=0

set root=(hd0) set default="Alpine Linux" set timeout=0

menuentry "Alpine Linux" {
    linux /vmlinuz-hardened root=/dev/sdb modules=sd-mod,usb-storage,ext4 console=ttyS0 quiet
    initrd /initramfs-hardened
}
