Very odd. The 'short writes' suggest that there's some serious
disagreement about the size of the partition that's being
exported.

It might be worth a try, as there have been literally hundreds of
changesets since then!
BTW: which document did you get the 'xda' syntax from? I believe
'xda' still works, but I haven't used it myself in ages as it's
now possible to export a device to appear as a hd[abcd] or
sd[abcd] in the guest domain. This has the advantage that it
typically avoids the need to edit the /etc/fstab.
If you still have problems, please can you enable the debug flags
in drivers/xen/blkback/common.h and rebuild and try again. You
should get some messages appear in dom0 if you do a dmesg.
To help debug this you'll also need to post the output of
/proc/partitions and '/sbin/sfdisk -s' and 'tune2fs -l' on all
the relevant partitions.
We'll also need to see the output from xend when the new domain
is being started.
