To activate Xen build you need to add to your local.conf:

DISTRO_FEATURES += “virtualization xen”

You have something to add virtualization but not xen

Then you must start Xen which should start Linux, in your current system you 
have more then probably just started the Linux generated but Xen needs to be 
started first and then Xen is starting Linux.

Once you have done that, it would also help if you provide your boot logs.
