Aha! Can you please check whether CentOS/RedHat kernel 2.6.18-53 (not 53.1.4) boot fine? If the problem is fixed somewhere between 53 -> 53.1.4, then I will provide a kernel based on 53.1.4 to you and the bug will most likely will go away.

Answering your questions:
1. 2.6.18-53.el5.028stab051.1 is based on 2.6.18-53.el5, not 53.1.4

2. And what are the differences between the "OpenVZ RHEL5 kernel" versions (all based on the 2.6.18 kernel) and the "OpenVZ 2.6.18" kernel.

The difference in RHEL5 patches. "OpenVZ 2.6.18" is based on mainstream kernel which is not updated by no one. "RHEL5 2.6.18 OpenVZ" kernel is based on RHEL5 kernel which in turn is based on 2.6.18 mainstream kernel and is updated by RedHat (security fixes, drivers, bugs, etc.).
So RHEL5 is preferebal for production usage.

3. The kernel that hangs is the following:
ovzkernel-2.6.18-53.el5.028stab051.1.x86_64.rpm
Do you recommend trying with this instead?
kernel-smp-2.6.18-ovz028stab051.1.x86_64.rpm

well. you can try Smile it can help us to resolve the problem if (1) won't help.
