JP, Try typing "linux single" if aurora gives you the option (if not, there should be some way of booting to single user mode). Once in single user mode, then run linuxconf and switch off the xfs service temporarily--also make sure to edit /etc/inittab so you are booting to runlevel 3. Reboot, and you should at least be able to get to a command prompt where you can further debug whatever is going wrong with XFS and / or get any information that might be useful for the list.
