Hi Steffen,
  I try to mount the partition in dom0 and however this is what the error message said:
  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
dom0:~# mount -t ext3 /dev/server/centos /mnt/temp 
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/server/centos, 
       missing codepage or helper program, or other error        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try 
       dmesg | tail  or so
  dom0:  dmesg | tail 
............... VFS: Can't find ext3 filesystem on dev dm-14. 
................... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  I have got a wrong entry in /etc/fstab inside the domU system which cause of not booting properly. Is there anyway I can do to mount this /dev/server/centos in dom0? 
  What you try to mount above is a whole virtual disk. You have first to make its partition seeable from your dom0 by using "kpartx -a /dev/server/centos". This will create for you entries (one per virtual partition) in /dev/mapper. Then you have to mount the entry that corresponds to your virtual root. 
 
  
 Thanks! James

 You don't have to. 
Just mount the partition in dom0 and repair there!
