You're almost there; there's probably no reason to wipe the drive and start 
over.  I've never seen the LABEL part of the grub.conf -- here's mine in its 
entirety:

default 0
timeout 5

title=The Mighty Penguin
root (hd0,0)
kernel (hd0,0)/boot/bzImage root=/dev/hda3


Short, sweet, and to the point.  Maybe you should try a really stripped-down 
grub.conf?

Best,
d.
