Restoring FC images to different HW configs

I use PXE boot to grab a Ghost boot image from an TFTP server. A
preconfigured Linux install then multicasts over to the machines. Some
of the machines have their hardware configured differently. ie on the
original machine
/boot = hda1
/ = hda2
Swap = hda3
On some machines the hard disks are plugged into a different IDE
controller (don't ask me why). So the config needs to be:
/boot = hdc1
/ = hdc2
Swap = hdc3
I can configure grub to boot the kernel but it fails when it attempts to
mount the partitions.
How do I re-configure this so it mounts the correct partitions?
Considering that I get to the rescue prompt and / is read only.
Cheers,
