I think I've narrowed down my issue (please see beginning of thread - ubuntu boot squence hangs at 'system V runlevel compatability' message).  I can install the hypervisor and boot to dom0 fine until I put the following entries into /etc/default/grub:

GRUB_SERIAL_COMMAND="serial --unit=0 --speed=9600 --word=8 --parity=no --stop=1"
GRUB_TERMINAL="console serial"
GRUB_CMDLINE_XEN="com1=9600,8n1 console=com1,vga"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="console=tty0 console=hvc0"

After updating grub and rebooting, I then get the hang during bootup.  Can anyone tell me whether it could be one/some/all of these entries and how I should replace them (I originally put them in based on this howto: http://wiki.debian.org/Xen)?  Thanks.
