It looks good to me given the partition map. But I'm not a grub expert
either...

As long as you have not touched the rh9 boot line the worst, I guess, is
that you won't be able to boot into 8.0.

If you get to the point of being able to boot 8 then changing the line:
default=0
to
default=1
should do the trick and the system should boot into 8 after the grub
timeout...

I guess you are editing the grub.conf that is in the /boot partition for
redhat 9, right? (/boot/grub/grub.conf, the last /boot partition
installed).
