Yes. This comes off a VM running on a Xen 3.1.2 system from about 2007. I've tested with Xen 3.4.3, and 4.1.1 and do not have this issue. Unfortunately, the infrastructure that I need to deploy is on the older system and it will not be upgraded any time soon.
Line 1 of the main program prints the "initialising devices ..." message, which doesn't get displayed. So I'm guessing that either: 1) the older IsoLinux has trouble and doesn't really load ipxe.krn, or 2) there is something in the older Xen's emulation of the console that is causing a problem. In either case it doesn't look like I'll get any debugging information from the console.

That message is from Syslinux (ISOLINUX, specifically). It looks like your Syslinux is pretty old. Would you consider upgrading it? - Shao Miller
