You loaded the kernel without parameters, in particular without
specifying the root partition. Additionally, dev=09:02 is 
RAID device /dev/md2.

If you type "help" at the GRUB command-prompt you get good docs
on the command set. "help SOMECOMMANDHERE" works, too.

For instance, 

 grub> find /boot/initrd-2.4.18-17.7x

would find your initrd,

 grub> find /boot/grub/grub.conf
 
would find your GRUB config file. If it still exists, you could load
it with (replace hd?,? appropriately)

 grub> configfile (hd?,?/boot/grub/grub.conf


Your problem would be fixed quickly by booting first CD in rescue
mode, checking your grub.conf and re-installing GRUB with the
"grub-install" command.
