virt-p2v is coming along nice see:
http://et.redhat.com/~rjones/virt-p2v/
It is also just about as easy to do something like:
boot your physical box from a live CD
install nfs-common
mount an nfs server directory with enough space to store the size of
your hard drive
dd your hard drive to a file to the mounted nfs server directory
make a xen config file that uses that image and passes the kernel and ramdisk
virt-p2v works over SSH, which is also pretty nice and easy to work with.
Hope those ideas help.
Cheers,
Todd
