i plugged another hdd so i have trouble with those sda/sdb jumps. earlier i solved it with using parameters to kernel root=UUID=<...> in grub2, but i didn't work with grub legacy. My grub.conf now is

LABEL=/UUID= does not work without using an initrd/initramdisk that will help the kernel figure out what these things mean. You can use genkernel http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/genkernel.xml to build an initrd.
(hmm... why is gentoo.org down as of writing this post...)
You still may need to use root () as this is a grub directive to point to the actual kernel and initrd files.
Easy solution is to just swap the SATA cables?
