Can you capture the serial console in a pastebin? Maybe add something
like "earlyprintk=ttySX", where ttySX is your known-to-work serial
console output. This helps to determine if it's a shutdown issue or an
early boot problem.
Also, worth to CC Xen mailing-list in this discussion I guess, I'm CCing them.
