If I boot from the ISO "CentOS-5.5-i386-bin-DVD.iso" from the CentOS FTP, the instance will hang at the same point as booting the instance from the virtual disk. It is solved by disabling SMP (using just 1 CPU).
I am running KVM 0.14.0+noroms-0ubuntu4.3 (compiled on 10.04 using source debs) on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS with kernel 2.6.32-33-server. I know this is probably not a supported combination, but since this is the same problem, I thought it might be useful to still answer on this bugreport.
Attached is a VNC screenshot. It is already hanging for about 15 minutes on this point.
