hi pramila, one guess is that ur new kernel does not support the required file system.you can try this boot ur system using a rescue img and make a initrd image which has the missing file system modules eg: mkinitrd /boot/initrd-new.img <kernel-version> --with=ext3 --with=jbd and give this in ur grub conf initrd /initrd-new.img since u have a scsi disk u may need other modules 2. do include that in ur initrd img

Use a rescue CD if available, mount your partitions, chroot and edit the grub.conf file to set the correct location

Hi pramila
Do make sure that u have copied ur new "bzimage file" in the directory "/boot". Also copy this new "bzimage file" in ur grub directory. I think u would get the result in ur favour/
