Hi, I had similar problem of init hanging when I migrated a hard disk from a new p4 to an old m/c. Someone advised me to install glibc rpms for i386 and remove the same for i686 from my hard disk. I did that and it worked. I really don't have any more info on this and not sure if this is really related to your problem. But this is the only occasion I have seen init hanging.
