Andrew,

Try booting with "single" on the command line of the kernel, this way you should boot on single user mode that will basically use /bin/sh as the init process. This will make easier to identify the point of failure.

Be sure to have the console device on your /dev, and be sure your filesystem is properly mounted.

Maybe if you put some log of the console may trigger some hint to help you further.

I just need to find out at what point does the console come up. I assume
its something to do with the inittab and getty, but I cant prove or
disprove its even getting that far!

Can anyone advise on how to make the kernel boot log be more verbose. Im getting the system hanging just before the usual time when the console
login appears.

Just a short in the dark: Did you change /etc permissions?
