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.
