By default, RH uses volume labels rather than device names to mount its
partitions. Fedora probably does the same. So /etc/fstab has lines
like these:
LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1
LABEL=/home /home ext3 defaults 1 2
You need to change /etc/fstab on *both* to use the device names rather
than labels, e.g.:
/dev/hda1 / ext3 defaults 1 1
/dev/hda2 /home ext3 defaults 1 2
Cheers,
John
