Well, as far as I can see, you're passing the RAW DEVICE NODE as the root partition instead of the numbered partition convention.
Instead of passing root=/dev/hda, try something like root=/dev/hda1 I hope that helps. p.s.: Next time, please, take your time to read what you're doing before complaining to a discussion list that had nothing to do with the problem you faced in the first place.. And, as you may or may not have noticed, your last sentence sounded somewhat harsh...
