Is your standard kernel config. modified from Debian?  If so, I will
suggest that you use CentOS 5 kernel-xen config as base and modified
from there to see whether are you able to reproduce the problem?

One important thing is due to udev version in CentOS 5, I think you
will need to set/enable CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED and
CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2.

BTW, just curious what is your /etc/fstab looks like as the following
make me curious... ...

Looking for driver for device hda1
Looking for driver for device hda2

Hope this helps!

Thanks.

Kindest regards,
