kernel 2.4.6



I have a problem. I have been trying to get the recent version of the kernel into my box. I am a relatively new user so I have not done this before. I used a kernel-update guide and followed all the directions and everything worked fine until I rebooted. When I did it gave me the following message:
...
VFS: Cannot open root device "800" or 08:00
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 08:00

I have not changed much in lilo.conf except the name of the new kernel, but the system can no longer find something or I have done something wrong.
