Subject: Build kernel : Error when reboot

Hello ,

I?m using Linux RedHat 8 , kernel-2.4.18
I?m trying to build kernel-2.4.26
I did following :
???.
make rmproper
make xconfig
make dep
make clean
make bzImage
make modules
make modules_install
rm ?rf /boot/System.map
rm ?rf /boot/vmlinuz
cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/bzImage-xxx
cp System.map /boot/System.map-xxx
ln -s /boot/vmlinuz-x.x.x /boot/vmlinuz
ln -s /boot/System.map-x.x.x /boot/System.map

I configured grub.conf as follow :

//old configuration
title Linux Red Hat (2.4.18-14)
root(hd0,0)
kernel /vmLinuz-2.4.18-14 ro root=LABEL=/
initrd /initrd-2.4.18-14.img

//my configuration
title New Kernel (2.4.26)
root(hd0,0)
kernel /vmLinuz-2.4.26 ro root=LABEL=/

when reboot
I received the error as follow :

?VFS : cannot open root device ? label = / ? or 00:00
Please append a correct ? root = ? boot option
Kernel panic : VFS : Unable to mount root fs on 00:00
?

I did : root=/dev/sda1 ( or root=/dev/sda2 )
but I received error :
kmod : failed to exec /sbin/modprobe ?s ?k
block-major-8 errno = 2
VFS : ....( similar to the first case )

Can anyone help me .

Thanks for yours help !
