Manually edit your GRUB file, change the label part on the kernel line to an appropriate /dev/hda1 (may not be 1) device name for your boot partition. Also whack a 1 onto the end of the kernel line, so you boot up in single mode (less things start that way). You can do this from the boot menu as a temporary change. Once it's started, either edit your /etc/fstab line to make fstab use devices rather than labels, or use e2label to relabel things on your new extra disk, or fdisk your new disk to remove any partitions with conflicting labels from i. Then you can telinit 3 (text) or telnet 5 (GUI) to continue on into a full/normal boot without having to reboot. -- Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
