f9 grub kernel arguments and kickstart questions

Hi,

I see that my f9 installs have a grub kernel argument 'root=UUID={hex}'

Could someone tell me a little about this? I've used things like 
root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 for seems like ages.

Does this impact things like disk cloning or jumbling packs between 
machines?

If so, is there a way to specify the older method in a kickstart file?

Also I know I can 'append' things in kickstart like "vga=791 acpi=force 
reboot=b', but can I remove the 'rhgb quiet'?

Thanks,
John
