TO mount to the correct /root partition, you can pass kernel parameters if
you use LILO boot manager when u see LILO prompt. Such as
LILO boot: linux root=/dev/hda_X
When RH8.0 booting is OK, make sure not to mount RH7.3 / as RH8.0's mount
point for checking filesytems on RH7.3. Checking mounted filesystem can
cause servere damage to the filesystem. You shuould check RH7.3 /
filesystems before mounting with
#fsck /dev/hdc
And when it is OK, you should mount under RH8.0.
Could u please give more info what u have done b4 the problems occur. And
whether u use LILO, GURB or other third-party boot managers such as System
Commander, Boot Magic, etc..
