I still wonder how this mess was created. Did you have an earlier Linux installation on it and forgot to wipe that completely before you installed CentOS? I think the easiest way to get you back on track is to edit your fstab. There is a line about /boot in it that points to /dev/hda3. Change that to /dev/hda8. This is all. But before you do that, please check that there is indeed a grub.conf on it that contains the "old" information. You know the path I gave you was slightly wrong. Once you have confirmed that you can make the change to fstab (/etc/fstab). Be really careful when you do that as the wrong changes can make your system unbootable. Once the change is done the *next* kernel that gets installed will go to the correct boot partition and the correct grub.conf will be updated with the correct information to boot with the new kernel.
