I had this issue back with F16/17 and could boot by specifying the device the old way, /dev/sda5 etc.  I can mount the drive partitions from a LIVECD of any linux distro.  What I want to know is what do I need to do to make GRUB2 work?  So far, I'm not at all impressed with GRUB2.  It's beyond ridiculous to have to edit a half-dozen files to change how a system boots.  I am considering trying to get it to boot by Label, but the directions to do so are just asinine.

OK, to clarify whether this is a bootloader's problem, you should try
with the EXTLINUX bootloader.

/boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf:
ui menu.c32
menu title The EXTLINUX bootloader
timeout 100

label Fedora (3.11.1-200.fc19.x86_64) 19 (Schrödinger’s Cat)
  kernel /vmlinuz-3.11.1-200.fc19.x86_64
  append root=$(grep -w / /etc/fstab | awk '{print $1}') ro rd.dm=0
rd.luks=0 rd.lvm=0 rd.md=0
  initrd /initramfs-3.11.1-200.fc19.x86_64.img

$ su -c "yum install syslinux-extlinux"
$ less /usr/share/doc/syslinux-$(rpm -qi syslinux | grep Version | awk
'{print $3}')/extlinux.txt
