Attach the boot disk to another DomU and load the SYSTEM registry hive
(C:\Windows\system32\config\SYSTEM). Look for xenpci in any UpperFilter
(and maybe LowerFilter) key values and remove it. Then unload the hive
and detach the boot disk and it should boot.

I may have fixed the network problem you are seeing, and could give you
a link to the latest binary if you are in a position to test it.
