Why do you add this line? Why don't you just use the generated config
file? AIUI Pygrub expects a disk, while xen-create-image creates
partitions. No wonder you sees something like "unable to find partition
table".

Wei.

Because, without mentioning this, I get the error that I need to provide either a path to the kernel image or a bootloader.

# xl create /etc/xen/precise-guest.cfg 

Parsing config from /etc/xen/precise-guest.cfg

Neither kernel nor bootloader specified
