 I have reached a partial solution stage..

I made initrd.img for xenolinux and added it to grub boot menu for
xenolinux

module /boot/initrd-2.4.24-xeno.img

The boot process proceeds..during "Checking for new hardware",
floppy drive, zip drive, cdrom, ethercards are removed!!

Boot sequence does complete and I can see the dom0 prompt.

I have no idea as to how to handle the hardware problem part..
