I seem to have a problem booting into my Debian Unstable. I receive
kernel panic while during boot after some initial hardware detection.
VFS errors with "Unable to mount root on device /dev/hda7".

This system was working perfectly fine until some time after installing
Red Hat to a separate partition. By this I mean the system booted with
no problems. /dev/hda7 has my root and boot directories on Ext3 (while
/dev/hda10 has my /home on ReiserFS).

Ext3 was compiled in and ReiserFS as well. I'm also, using an initrd.img
with this kernel. The kernel is loaded using GRUB which I've
re-installed into /dev/hda with grub-install with no apparent errors.

# For booting GNU/Linux
title  GNU/Linux (2.6-test4)
root (hd0,6)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.0-test4 hdb=ide-scsi root=/dev/hda7 
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.0-test4
----------------------

When I boot, I did notice GRUB was unable to do the auto-completion of
kernel images (using TAB) complaining about file system errors. Like
I've said already the same system booted perfectly fine before, so I
guess I've messed something up installing Red Hat's GRUB somehow?

Starting my system, with a different kernel, as in rescue mode with
"rescue root=/dev/hda7" works fine as well. Not sure how to proceed from
here. Any ideas anyone?
