I need to move a SLES10 SP2 server from one DASD volume to another

discovered that the server's boot parms included the following:
root=/dev/disk/by-id/ccw-IBM....etc
Naturally, the id of the new DASD device is not the same as the
original, and the server refuses to boot. If I boot the server from
its
original home, is there a way to change the root= parm to be something
rather less specific so that it will then boot in its new home?
We wrote a tool to do this:
