/dev/sda1              /boot
/dev/sda2              swap
/dev/sda3              /
/dev/sda6              /var
/dev/sda5              /tmp
/dev/sda7              /home

I also have sdb, sdc, and sdd, which I mount for storage under my home
directory. For some reason, it seems like some letter-switching is
going on. IIRC, this drive was sdc in my FC4 setup; don't if this has
any bearing on the problem...

Thanks for any ideas you might have...

First backup ur grub.conf to grub.conf.bak
Then edit grub.conf to replace hd2 with hd0    (2 replacements expected) save and reboot.
That is if ur /boot is placed on /dev/sda1
