Redhat in the earlier version does not use "LABEL", but later this
become part of the standard - then just put root=/dev/xxxx where xxxx
is mount partition of the OS.
But are u using LVM for the root mount partition? If yes then I
suspect the file system is not properly mounted, due to some missing
components in the new initrd file ("lvm" in particular, and the
/dev/mapper directory) - compare the two list and see which one is
missing (command needed are gzip -dc, cpio -i and tree, for further
reference consult for example
http://www.netadmintools.com/art164.html).
If so then you have to lookup further in the internet how to create a
new initrd file manually - as the one created automatically by the
"make install" command is not working for you.
