Aye, precisely ... me too! With the redhat.com kernels I have installed, root=LABEL=/ works, but with my kernel.org kernels, only root=/dev/hda2 works. I mean to be questioning this mystery: why does root=LABEL=/ only sometimes work. If I'm understanding our discussion, here we first replied with a question: did I make /boot/initrd*.img only for my redhat.com kernels. I answer that I made initrd*.img for my kernel.org kernels too. In particular, I see /boot/initrd-2.5.72-pel.img exists. Indeed, `ls -l /boot/initrd*.img` tells me my working and not working initrd*.img have the same -rw-r--r-- permissions and root:root ownership. So why does root=LABEL=/ only sometimes work???
