Here is a little script that fixes most common problems.

grep -q xenfs /etc/fstab || echo "xenfs                   /proc/xen             
  xenfs   defaults        0 0" >> /etc/fstab
if grep -q ata_piix /etc/modprobe.conf ; then
        NR=`cat /etc/modprobe.conf | grep scsi | wc -l`
        grep -q pata_oldpiix /etc/modprobe.conf || echo "alias 
scsi_hostadapter$NR pata_oldpiix" >> /etc/modprobe.conf
fi
grep -q hvc /etc/inittab || echo "co:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty hvc0 9600 
vt100-nav" >> /etc/inittab
grep -q hvc0 /etc/securetty || echo "hvc0" >> /etc/securetty
