Panic booting 2.6.30

[David Ronis]

I've just upgraded an older machine (a P3 running slackware 11.0) from
2.6.26.5 to 2.6.30; the build was uneventful.  However, on reboot (using
lilo) I get:

VSF:  Cannot open root device "hda2" or unknown-block(0,0)
Please append a correct root= boot option; here are the available
partions:     <====== nothing shows here...
Kernel-Panic - not syncing.

I had rebooted with and without root=hda2.   The old kernel is still
usable.

Lilo.conf looks like:

boot = /dev/hda
lba32
message = /boot/boot_message.txt
prompt
timeout = 300
vga = normal
# Linux bootable partition config begins
image = /bzImage-2.6.30
  root = /dev/hda2
  label = Linux-2.6.30
  read-only
# Linux bootable partition config ends
# Linux bootable partition config begins
image = /bzImage-2.6.26.5
  root = /dev/hda2
  label = Linux-2.6.26.5
  read-only
# Linux bootable partition config ends
# Linux bootable partition config begins
image = /memtest86
  root = /dev/hda2
  label = memtest86
  read-only
# Linux bootable partition config ends

Any ideas?  Please CC me directly.

Thanks in advance

David
