AFAIK Fedora sets up the kernel command line with "root=LABEL=/" in

If you do not want an initrd, then change this to
"root=/dev/<your_disk>" in grub.conf. Note that the reason Fedora
uses
the LABEL is so you can move disks around in your system without a
problem
Heh.. except for people like me, who regularly swap disks around
to boot from different distros, in which case the LABEL=/ continuously
causes nothing but grief until I remember to edit it away.
You would like labels a lot better if you took charge and forced the
labels to be something like "FC4-root", "SLES9-root" etc. rather than
the default "/".
