Are either of you using an initrd? You'll need it to make udev work.

I think there's one for FC3 on the Xen FAQ page.

Cheers,
Mark

Hi,

Could someone please help me.

Basically when I run rhel 4 or fc3, or fc4 under xen, the system never
boots. It always hangs after starting SE linux. Can anyone please help
me with this.

Many Thanks
Shaz

Just to track the cause: does it boot with kernel cmdline "selinux=0"?
(warning: this disables selinux, so new files get no selinux-label! You
may have to relabel them on next boot with selinux enabled)

That speeds things up, but it should boot anyway.

If that's the problem it can easily be solved without using an initrd:
Mount and chroot into the FC guest filesystem before you boot it and run

/sbin/MAKEDEV null console zero

See here
