As what I had learned form IBM-developwork
the param kernel in grub menu should be :
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4..... root=/dev/hdxx(or root=/LABEL=/
(I am not quite sure of the root param, as I always use /dev/hdb7 in manual;)
but I found the menu generate by redaht8 or 9
is :
kernel /vmlinuz-2.4...... root=......

I don't understand why it change to /vmlinuz....
But I think it may lead to my trouble;
------------------------------------------
here is my problem:
   I plus an other harddesk which contain a RH8 to a box
that have a RH9.
 RH9 is in hdb, / is hdb7 and /boot is hdb6.
 rh8 is in hdc, it's / is hdc5 and /boot is hdc1;
I want to boot in to RH9 :
the gurb menu of RH9 gen by redhat is like this:
root (hd0,5) (the hdb1 is a fat32 with winxp ,grub is in mbr)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.20-8 ro root=/LABEL=/ 
initrd /initrd-2.4.20-8.img

this can't boot correctly as I plus the hdc on the box,
It told me multi / is found ,and stop in the syslog as many faild
had been given before!
well, I try to boot manual,I type this:
root (hd0,5) 
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.20-8 root=/dev/hdb7
grub told me file not found
If I try :
kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.20-8 root=/dev/hdb7
it pass! then with the same initrd param
It start to boot but with the same faild at the end!

so how can I boot correctly it I had two hd with LABEL /?
Any advice would be appreciate!
