good. nice setup, btw, i too like diskless boxes.  hopefully it won't be long 
until it's practical to have some more advanced networks for this kind of

filter by type 88A2 or by src MAC address

somebody did get Xen running over AoE, so it shouldn't be a kernel patch

maybe the ethx you're using for AoE gets in the xen bridge?  do you do your 
aoe-discover before or after setting up the Xen network?
