I got interested in an old thing I thought might still work. This you
can do from a rescue disk that goes into grub, which is all the Fedora
ones for some time. I wanted to type this in the grub and see if it works:
grub> root (hd1,4)
grub> kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.23.14-107.fc8 ro root=LABEL=/
grub> boot
Well the root part worked fine. But I tried all variations on the kernel
description and it never took it. I removed LABEL=/ and put in /dev/sdxx
and tried many. Then I made it
kernel /boot//vmlinuz-2.6.23.14-107.fc8 ro root=LABEL=/
and that didn't work. Tried all the /dev/sdxx variations.
It appears that maybe kernel has been changed in the new grub.

Are you using LVM?
You may need to specify the LV that it is on.
IE -
grub> root (hd1,4)
grub> kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.23.14-107.fc8 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01
grub> boot
mount |grep "on / " |cut -d" " -f1
should tell you the device being mounted as /
