Why is the kernel still attempting to access sda4, which is now an

Grub knows to look on (hd0,5) (i.e. /dev/sda6) and finds the kernel
there, so I don't understand why the kernel itself is looking for
sda4.
This is the sort of thing that used to be handled by rdev (at least on
x86 systems). But, I haven't used rdev in years although I've moved
systems to different partitions several times this year.
The error from the kernel is because it was compiled on a system using
sda4 for '/'. Do your boot arguments that grub passes to the kernel
include 'root=/dev/sda6' ?
