This error is returned if the specified file name cannot be found, but 
everything else (like the disk/partition info) is OK.
Probably your original configuration was ok in term of file path but not 
in term of driver content. I mean, probably, because your kernel or 
initrd is missing a basic driver you need in dom0 (i.e. try an  "lspci" 
while your system is booted with redhat and verify that there is support 
for these devices in your xen kernel. It sound strange if you used the 
default kernel that should have a huge number of driver in it, but maybe 
you are using a particularly modern or strange hardware, like a disk 
controller?)
rerun mkinitrd may help too   (mkinitrd <location of file> <kernel 
version> (I'm sure it is on the manual in Install from source section)
