I finally got around to installing C2T3 last night and I'm now getting...

VFS: Cannot open root device "LABEL=/" or unkown-block(0,0)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)

grub look like this....

root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.5-1.327 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb
initrd /initrd-2.6.5-1.327.img

I've tried passing LABEL=/dev/sda3 but no luck there either.

I tried root=803 for sda3 and I'm getting....

VFS: Cannot open root device "803" or unkown-block(8,3)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(8,3)

Any other ideas? :(

TIA
