I think as a work around you can change the grub.conf to use the
/dev/xxx instead of the disk label.


i did changes it to as follows

kernel /vmlinuz-whatever root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet
....change it to.....
kernel /vmlinuz-whatever root=/dev/sda2 rhgb quiet


but still the same thibg appears.

The new kernel seems to have problems picking up the filesystem label.
