looks like you have a lot of partitions. maybe the kernel isn't using the
right one
for root filesystem? if using LILO to boot, make sure root= line for your new
kernel is the same as old one. if using redhat on a large disk, it will set up

the first partition as /boot filesystem, so kernel will mount it ok, but won't
find any programs like init or sh on it.

Let me know how this works out.
