Hello Gary,
Not sure if this is related, but it is the only thing sticking out:

libbz2.so.1.0 => not found
bzip2-libs only provides libbz2.so.1 and libbz2.so.1.0.4, not libbz2.sos.1.0. bzip2-devel doesn't provide it either, nor does any other package.
If you haven't installed bzip2-libs install it. If you still see that "libbz2 not found" try (assuming you're on i386): # cd /lib # ln -s libbz2.so.1.0.4 libbz2.so.1.0
and see if that makes a difference.
Since CentOS uses an unaltered SRPM for bzip2 you can be pretty sure Red Hat does not provide that link either. Which means that dependency is a "chromism", i.e. a bug in Chrome, possibly due to a build system with a modified bzip2.
You could also try booting a stock kernel, not a centosplus one.
