The lines are correct; they were written by update-grub (I think; at least that's what I ran). Anyway the exact problem was that it couldn't mount the root FS and asked me to make sure the root= parameter was correct, which it was (same as the 2.4 kernel's root= parameter). Someone in #debian said that means I have a bad kernel build and to start over, which I did, but to no avail.

Hi all,
What's Debian's policy on crossposting to debian groups? Probably not posting to all Debian's groups :)
Furthermore, if I try to boot into my new 2.6.8 kernel, I get a kernel panic (starting with 'VFS:') about being unable to mount the root file system. I don't know if this is related at all.
Debian's 2.6?
Make sure you have the relevant initrd lines in the /etc/lilo.conf (or
grub, etc) file. This bit me lastnight when I forgot to update one of
the lilo stanzas. The correct line in my case was:
initrd=/boot/initrd.img-2.4.27-1-386
in my image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.27-1-386
stanza.
