This is really odd. The last line of the script contains a
"domain start". Is there a missing LF or something?

Very odd. Any chance you can get a serial line on the system?
The other domain's boot messages should also come out on serial.

I take it that you're wanting to boot with the initrd copied
off the CD, and use the CD for the new domain's /usr ?

AFAIK, Our CD doesn't run a telnetd by default. There should be
an sshd, but I think your problem lies elsewhere...

Connection refused is a slightly odd message. If the domain was
totally dead, I'd expect the telnet to hang. 

What happens if you run tcpdump in domain0. Do you see any
packets arriving at 169.254.1.0 ?
