your partition numbers have changed. try and boot into any rescue or
maintenance system
and change the entries, in
/etc/fstab
/boot/grub/menu.lst

eg. if your grub boot command in menu.lst is

root = (hd0,2)
kernel = /vmlinuz root=/dev/hda6

you have to go into grub command mode and issue
root = (hd0,3)
kernel = /vmlinuz root=/dev/hda7 ro
boot

this should boot your system.  then run a grub-install
inside the booted system.  then do the editing in the /boot/grub/menu.lst
for the grub to know where the root partition is

do the editings inside the /etc/fstab and
try for a reboot.
