Hey Chris: Do you need to Run Red Hat Linux 9? I think the best solution for you is to run a more recent Linux (eg. Fedora Core 2 or 3) as the provided 2.6 kernel should recognize your HD as sda and you won't have the problem you are experiencing.
I have yet to find a 'clean' solution to fix your problem - it involves manual modifications to your resulting nodes and that is probably not something you want to do on a cluster. In any case, you can try to use a rescue CD (eg. first CD of RH9), boot off the node and modify the HD's /etc/lilo.conf, then afterwards re-run lilo in a chroot environment (I believe that should work). I strongly suggest you do some research on this before modifying anything on your HD :) I will continue to see if I can figure out a more general solution, but in the mean time the best solution is to run a more recent Linux.
