I am not using pygrub (or at least I am not aware of), the .conf file I give xen is:
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18.8-xenU"
memory = 2048
#memory = 512
vif = [ 'bridge=xenbr0', ]
disk = ['phy:vm_volumes/vm2_root,sda1,w', 'phy:vm_volumes/vm2_swap,sda2,w']
root = "/dev/sda1 ro"
extra = "fastboot"
and the inittab looks like this (it is a jailtime.org COS5 64bit image):
id:3:initdefault:
# System initialization.
si::sysinit:/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit
l0:0:wait:/etc/rc.d/rc 0

Check the inittab of the xen instance and also the options to pygrub
if you are using pygrub. It appears that output is getting
redirected to a non-existent console device somewhere. If there
are any co: lines in the inittab of the domU you should take them out,
also if there are any console=ttyS0 lines in the grub.conf of
pygrub take them out
