look into /boot/grub/grub.cfg
(was auto-generated by "grub-update", which probed for all OS'es 
on your system; "install-grub" installed the actual bootloader. 
the cfg can be changed. no re-install run is needed as the cfg is 
read on filesystem level by Grub2 - unlike LILO)

maybe post the cfg here; or you should see the relevant boot line 
and if adding the flags is possible. Don't know if it is possible 
with OSX loading similar to the "linux /boot/vmlinuz ... 
[params]" commands. If something like "chainloader" is responsible 
for OSX loading, you might need to install the OSX bootloader plus 
flags into his own partitition.
