Wasn't it hanging? You can try putting '#!/bin/sh -x` (note the -x) as
first line in init.d/xfs. This should show each line as it is processed
and may give clue to what line is causing a problem. Also, this is
runlevel 5 right? At what point in init is this getting started? Look at
/etc/rc.d/rc5.d to see. Perhaps it is getting started too early.

As a work around, you could put it in rc.local, to avoid typing it
manually.
