It seems to be failing even to mount your initrd image. Try compiling support for ext3 into your kernel instead of  as a module.

Hi All,
After successfully installing xen 3.0 on a few machines, now  I  have  a
problem booting xen kernel for a dom0 host domain on a Supermicro PIV 1g
RAM machine with two ide disks with 40gb each.

Here's the last lines of the booting before kernel panic

<<

and

here's the df command output showing the partition

Any suggestion?
Thanks in advance
