that's all the message says.  it's at the stage where it's looking for the cd 
to mount under /newroot.  I didn't edit the fstab, this is the livecd...and 
the minimal cd.  Im assuming it's looking for whatever is set as ROOT= in 
the grub.conf.  dunno.  like I said 2005.0 boots fine.

 More detail pls.
