Thanks for the tip Keir.
I was able to get the server to boot up with lilo. It really doesn't matter
that much to me which boot loader I use so lilo will work.

Don,
We do have install support from Red Hat. I just had to find the right person
in our company who had the support information. It's usually faster to get
an answer from the group than from support though.

I know this is not really a fix, but have you tried to using lilo instead?
