Hi all,

How can I boot a XEN domU guest into safe mode? One of our servers was
forcefully shutdown, and it seems like one of my VM's could be
corrupt, or something.


When I boot it up, I get the following on the console:

Creating root device.
Mounting root filesystem.
kjournald starting.  Commit interval 5 seconds
EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode.
Setting up other filesystems.
Setting up new root fs
no fstab.sys, mounting internal defaults
Switching to new root and running init.
unmounting old /dev
unmounting old /proc
unmounting old /sys
/sbin/init: error while loading shared libraries: libselinux.so.1:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!



So, is it possible to boot the VM into safe mode, and fix this problem somehow?
