Please don't top-post. Information up here is not very useful.

Although they are kernel params, I think in the xen context they should
be on the module line, e.g. 
        module /vmlinuz-2.6.17-1.2145_FC5xen0 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 
selinux=0 3

anytime now... :-)]

Did you check the above thread? Does it apply to you?

And, again, has the machine been updated?
