Use your live cd to mount and edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and /etc/fstab.
 You have to change the old partition numbers to the new ones.  If you
still had the lvm type partition designations, then replace them with
/dev/sda<partition#> instead.  For tips on editing fstab, just do "man
fstab".

Also, be aware that the grub menu you get when you boot can be
changed.  This is helpful if you guessed the wrong numbers when you
edited the /boot/grub/menu.lst file.  Just hit the "e" key on the
selected linux on the grub screen and it will give you a grub
terminal, where you can use "e" to edit, and "b" to boot.  If it
fails, just try <cntl><alt><del> and try a different number at the
next grub boot.

HTH,
