I think you will find that in /boot/grub/grub.conf
$ mount /dev/cciss/c0d0p2 on / type ext3 (rw,noatime)
$ sudo cat /etc/grub/menu.list #symlinked to /etc/grub/grub.conf # grub.conf generated by anaconda # # Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file # NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that # all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg. # root (hd0,0) # kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/cciss/c0d0p2 # initrd /initrd-version.img #boot=/dev/cciss/c0d0 default=0 timeout=5 splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz hiddenmenu title CentOS (2.6.18-92.1.17.el5) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-92.1.17.el5 ro root=/dev/cciss/c0d0p2 initrd /initrd-2.6.18-92.1.17.el5.img title CentOS (2.6.18-92.1.13.el5) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-92.1.13.el5 ro root=/dev/cciss/c0d0p2 initrd /initrd-2.6.18-92.1.13.el5.img title CentOS (2.6.18-53.el5) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-53.el5 ro root=LABEL=/1 initrd /initrd-2.6.18-53.el5.img

And yes, I've tried altering the root= lines to match the working kernel, but that didn't work either, and it gets overwritten anyway after every kernel upgrade.
Other, far more knowledgeable people on the list will, hopefully,
answer your questions.
Thanks ;)
