Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] dom0 won't boot
My machine rebooted under similar circumstances, although I might have got something from dom0, but I put noacpi in the xen boot line in grub and it fixed it right up.

Here's the output from the serial console:

Restarting system.
[rebooting from linux-smp into xen]
kernel (hd0,4)/boot/xen.gz dom0_mem=131072 com1=115200 noht noreboot
   [Multiboot-elf, <0x100000:0x40c4c:0x344f4>, shtab=0x176078, entry=0x100000]
module (hd0,4)/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.26-xen0 root=/dev/sda5 ro console=ttyS0
   [Multiboot-module @ 0x177000, 0x30b8fc bytes]

That's it.

To sum up, things that have changed from the last time this worked:

(Slightly) newer code.
Using XFS instead of ext2.
Only two partitions (1GB swap and 15GB) instead of several smaller ones.
I was in a bit more of a hurry...

Let me know if there's anything else useful I can try.  Otherwise, I'll wipe 
the drive and start over in the morning.
