me too. now.
I think I am using (hdn,n) correctly. This is the boot parameters
(actually generated by yum) in menu.1st that won't work:
title Fedora (2.6.23.15-80.fc7PAE)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.23.15-80.fc7PAE ro root=LABEL=/
initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.23.15-80.fc7PAE.img
this is what i first had, but it hung until i changed to (sdx,n).
with 'x' and 'n' both as numbers.
try 'sd', it may correct it for you as it did for me. will not take that long.
and certainly worth time if it does work.

But another box runs F8 very smoothly with (hdx,y):
title Fedora (2.6.23.1-42.fc8) noacpi
root (hd0,2)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.23.1-42.fc8 ro root=LABEL=/1 noacpi
initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.23.1-42.fc8.img
some boxes are choosier than others. just like women.
