what I mean is this: _if_ a kernel works without these parameters then
this is preferrable. The kernel that is installed from the DVD is
normally older than the one you have on a fully updated system, and
RedHat keeps fixing bugs and improving hardware compatibility. So there
is some chance that you might be able to get rid of these parameters
with later kernels.
Of course if you have problems with the kernel after removing those
parameters, you have to boot again from the DVD _with_ those parameters,
go into "linux rescue", mount the disk, and edit grub.conf to put them
back. A bit tedious but straightforward.
HTH,

If grub is still working, you can edit grub at the boot screen (type 'e'
to edit) to get yourself booted and then fix grub.conf after you
successfully boot. You shouldn't have to get out the DVD to fix
grub.conf unless something is hosed with the kernel itself (and editing
grub.conf isn't going to help you).
