My xen domain file (/etc/xen/rawhide) looks like this

kernel ="/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.11-1.1225_FC4xenU"
memory = 100
name = "rawhide"
nics = 1
disk = ['file:/root/fedora.img,mapper,w']
root = "/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00 ro"

I don't think making your disk available as /dev/mapper inside domU is going to work. /dev/mapper should be a directory.

Do you have an LVM volume inside /root/fedora.img? If not, you should not be using /dev/mapper at all for domU.
