root (hd0,2)
kernel /vmlinuz ro root=/dev/hda15
initrd /initrd.img
module /reiserfs.o
boot

Problem is, this only worked once.  Now I get
  RAMDISK: Couldn't find valid RM disk image starting at 0
  Freeing initrd memory: 187k freed
  VFS: Cannot open root device "hda15" or 03:0f
  Please append a correct "root=" boot option
  Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:0f

I don't get it.  I verified all of the files in boot that I am
loading.  And hda15 mounts just find on my desktop.  The files
there look fine.
