CentOS - Sep 2009 - network not starting and maybe other services in a virtual machine

I am installing centos 5.3 i386 in a virtual machine. I am using kvm-87 
(which I use for other images
just fine).

The box installed fine, it boots up I can login but NONE of the services 
are starting .

When watching the boot up process it goes from the "Welcome to  CentOS 
5.3 " directly to
mounting the partitions and a login prompt. All the services are not 
being started.
What didnt happen at install? or what do I check now.

/etc/inittab looks normal.

Thanks,

Jerry

Maybe you look at VNC and console is set to serial, or vice versa.

Its like the /etc/rc script isnt running. Who or what starts that up?
If I run it manually "sh rc" then everything starts up.

Where is that?
