thanks for your response In meantime since i wrote I have edited /etc/grub.conf, run grub-install /dev/sda, and grub-install --recheck to map all drives
all drives are mapped but, no matter if i use kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.20-8smp ro root=LABEL=/ hda=ide-scsi or kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.20-8smp ro root=/dev/sdd2 hda=ide-scsi I get error 15 root (hd2,0) Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83 kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.20-8smp ro root=LABEL=/ hda=ide-scsi (or kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.20-8smp ro root=/dev/sdd2 hda=ide-scsi) Error 15: File not found / is on partition 2 on sdd (hd2) in that /etc/fstab on hd2 (rh9) uses LABEL=/ for /, i figured i should try that...but since neither connotation works, i am (still) at a loss. thanks for any suggestion here.
