I am trying to boot a custom built 2.4.20 kernel on a new Red Hat 8.0
box.  When I boot, I get the following error:

VFS: Cannot open root device "LABEL=/" or 00:00
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel Panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 00:00

My grub line for this consists of:

title KB Kernel (2.4.20)
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.20 ro root=LABEL=/ hdc=ide-scsi

While a working kernel from Red Hat looks like:

title Red Hat Linux (2.4.18-18.8.0)
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.18-18.8.0 ro root=LABEL=/ hdc=ide-scsi nousb
        initrd /initrd-2.4.18-18.8.0.img

Thanks in advance!
