I've just upgraded from FC2 -> FC3 and I'm having trouble compiling a working kernel.
My old 2.6.8.1 kernel which was compiled under FC2 works just fine under FC3, but when I recompile it under FC3 I get the following errors:
Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel audit(1101046871.4294965592:0): inititalized Red Hat nash version 4.1.18 starting mkrootdev: label /1 not found mount: error 2 mounting ext3 mount: error 2 mounting none switchroot: mount failed: 22 umount /initrd/dev failed: 2 Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
If I change grub.conf to my root device /dev/sdb5 instead of LABEL=/1 I get the same errors but without the 'label /1 not found' error and - mount: error 6 mounting ext3
I've tried the FC3 kernel source and 2.6.9 from kernel.org and always the same errors.
I see from the list that there are similar problems with the latest kernel rpm but I can't even recompile an old kernel source that was previously working.

Am I missing something really obvious? I'd appreciate some pointers.
