Thank you for asking how the kernel detects my drives.  

2.4.3-12 detects the drives differently from 2.4.2-2!!!!  Why is that?  I changed 
lilo to mount root= at the new /dev/.  It boots now!  

I am still pretty new to Linux and I get a message stating it can not load the 
swap partition because it is looking at the old drive mapping location.  How 
do I change the place where the new kernel to looks for the swap partition?

We are almost there.  

Thank you.
