You can use the rescue disk by giving it a root= option, but the better
solution is just to build a boot floppy. 
To do this, boot up the rescue disk and go into the installation menu and
choose "build boot floppy". This will build a boot floppy that knows where
your root file system is and will boot without added parameters.
