Sri, I'm not sure about this part:

root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00

It Should be something like root=/dev/sda1 . I believe that VolGroup00
thing has to do with LVM something I'm not very familiar with but I don't
think the boot process will be able to "understand" LVM at that early
stage.

I might be wrong though.
