I think this is a message from grub, but without a full boot log it is
hard for me to tell.

What have you tried?

Please provide the grub menu entry you are using. Why aren't you just
letting update-grub generate one?

Are you perhaps trying to boot EFI Xen from GrUB? Don't do that, instead
launch xen.efi directly from the UEFI shell. See
http://xenbits.xen.org/docs/unstable/misc/efi.html and various threads
on -users@ and -devel@

Not especially, this is almost certainly a s/w issue.
