My apologies for the being unclear.  I'm dealing with RHAS 2.1 (update
2).  But you're right, it's in kernel-BOOT.  It's the strangest thing, I
*swear* I looked for that package before, and couldn't find it.  :-P

P.S.  Does the following sound like an initrd or vmlinuz error?

RAMDISK: Couldn't find valid RAM disk image starting at 0.
Freeing initrd memory: 673k freed
EXT2-fs: unable to read superblock
cramfs: wrong magic
isofs_read_super: bread failed, dev=09:00, iso_blknum=16, block=32
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 09:00
