Thanks to everyone who replied to the "too good to be true" thread.  It 
was very informitive and it looks like many of you have had very 
positive experiences with KnoppMyth.  Given that, I decided to give it a 
try.  I made it through the manual configuration (I have a SATA drive) 
and rebooted my machine, but I get a "Kernel Panic" message.  I have a 
feeling it may be a problem with my partitions.  I'm used to GUI 
partitioning a la Red Hat and not the command line/cfdisk method.  There 
is also a message above the panic line that says to put a "root=" line 
in the boot instructions.  I'm new to LILO (normally a GRUB user) and I 
am unsure how to do this.  If anyone has any suggestions or where I can 
find a more detailed n00b friendly partitioning guide, it would be much 
appreciated.

-Tom
