Description:
/boot/grub/menu.lst installed by grub package contains one line like :
kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/hda3 ro

as almost every new pc as a sata hdd which is shown as /dev/sda# and that ide hdd are shown as /dev/sda# also if
you use libata by using the correct module, then almost everybody as a /dev/sda# instead of /dev/hda#

so i suggest to change /dev/hda3 into /dev/sda3 in the example in /boot/grub/menu.lst

Additional info:
* package version(s)
grub 0.97-13
* config and/or log files etc.
in /boot/grub/menu.lst
