mkinitcpio.conf is irrelevant since the server uses the Xen kernel. In
fact, no kernel package is installed at all. There's no initrd or
anything remotely similar in my drive. I copied the kernel modules
tree from the original /lib/modules before overwriting the disk with
Arch, but otherwise, that's it.

dmesg returns the following:

Kernel command line:  root=/dev/sda1 ro
EXT3 FS on sda1, internal journal

The last bootup gave the following:

messages.log.1:May 27 18:32:13 pegasus Bootdata ok (command line is
root=/dev/sda1 ro)
messages.log.1:May 27 18:32:13 pegasus Kernel command line:  root=/dev/sda1 ro
messages.log.1:May 27 18:32:13 pegasus EXT3 FS on sda1, internal journal
