The Runlevel specified in the kernel boot commandline overrides whatever is 
specified as default in /etc/inittab

check your grub config, and remove the runlevel set there, like

kernel /boot/xen.gz dom0_mem=131072
module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.11.10-xen 5 root=/dev/hda1

becomes

kernel /boot/xen.gz dom0_mem=131072
module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.11.10-xen root=/dev/hda1

you can check with
cat /proc/cmdline
in your dom0 wether there was actually a runlevel set on boot.
