Looks like your disk backend isn't getting setup. xl seems to want to
use qemu for this. Does /usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-system-i386 exist? Is
there a qemu process running while the guest is booting? Do you get any
logs in the /var/log/xen/*dm*.log relating to this domain?

Were you using xl or xm with Xen 4.1?
