[CentOS] Booting into a shell and skipping init

[James Hogarth]

Err reread and disregard my thoughts - evidently too tired! But its true
citrix forums would be a better audience esp given the upstream vendor and
hence centos moving to kvm..

XenServer 5.6 is based on CentOS 5.4

  [root at penfold ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
  XenServer release 5.6.0-31188p (xenenterprise)
  [root at penfold ~]# rpm -q centos-release
  centos-release-5-4.el5.centos.1

Aren't you better off taking XenServer questions to the Citrix forums?
For example, the XenServer boot process uses extlinux and not grub;
here's an area where XenServer diverges from CentOS and so you may get
better answers from the correct support forum.
