hmmm, sorry, I didn't understand too much ;-)
So I booted with the normal bootline from the menu list but additionally 
inserted "init=/bin/sh" right after "acpi=off".
I had a shell prompt.
I typed "/etc/init.d/boot.localfs start"
had the messages as above (mounting... nothing was mounted...)
typed in "/etc/init.d/boot.udev start"
had a shell prompt again - at least it didn't freeze...
I typed "yast" just to see if it starts - and it did (didn't know what else I 
could type...). I just quit Yast without doing anything and shutdown.

I didn't understand what you mean with the foobar thing... 
But now at least I have a shell prompt - if you can tell me what to do, I hope 
I can deliver the infos you need... b.t.w. I have no idea what "shm" is.
