Fedora Core 6 is booting from (hd1,0). If you look at your grub menu Fedora 7 is trying to boot from the same partition. That's not going to work. If Fedora Core 6 works and boots successfully then Fedora 7 must need to boot from another partition. Change the line for Fedora 7 that reads:
root (hd1,0)
to read
root (hd2,0)
and see if it boots.
Actually, the two kernels co-exist in the same drive, which happened before when I upgraded the kernel. I select either new kernel or older kernel, on which Linux works well. I think the Fedora 7 may need the "LABEL" to boot system rather than the device ID refer to: Upgrade Related Issues. . But I am not sure how to do that.

Not too familiar with LVM. Never used it. Just a guess, how about ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 rhgb quiet instead of ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb quiet ?? Seems I've read/seen a lot of posts regarding LVM and problems booting. I stick with EXT3. Most of the more experienced forum members seem to think that LVM is more of a curse than a blessing.
