Something in the chain of required code to load your root filesystem is
missing or not working properly - the SCSI driver, SCSI disk support,
or ext2fs support.  You'll need to recompile to fix it - hope you
saved a LILO entry for the old kernel; otherwise you'll need "rescue
mode" from the Red Hat disks.
