disk = : allows you to export devices / files in dom0 to a target device in
the guest. There's some detail on this in the user guide and also in the
example config files.
root = : root device location to pass to the guest on its kernel command line.
this should be set to the *target* device for the root disk you're exporting
using the disk = line.
extra = : this is for any random extra text you want appended to the kernel
commandline. You probably don't need it.

Re-exporting using NFS may work (depending on if AFS is an exportable
filesystem) but it's a bit of an ugly solution. You could import the afs
mount directly into the guests as if they were separate hdosts.
Exporting directory hierachies isn't something we have special support for at
the moment - we're working on it. I have some code for a high-performance
shared memory filesystem called "XenFS" but this is a fair way away from
being production ready. Expect to see more details posted on the xen-devel
list in future.
Cheers,
Mark
