Re: Xen VM rescue mode
You can go into single user mode by passing 1 or single on the guest kernel command line.

Try adding the following config option to your guest config file

extra="single"

OR

extra="1"

I would recommend the xen-users list for the type of questions
(Xen: Xen-users Info Page)
Also you could try searching at xen.markmail.org.

Cheers,
Todd
