I think it is you yaboot.conf

This is the key.

ahh.. Xen will high-jack the initrd from yaboot and consider it as  
the dom0 image.
so you could have
image = /boot/xen
label = xen
root = /dev/disk/by-id/ata-TOSHIBA_MK4019GAXB_93SK3653T-part3
initrd = /boot/vmlinux-2.6.16.46-0.12-ppc64

assuming that this kernel is Xen capable.
but then you would have needed an initrd from somewhere.

This is a limitation of yaboot for Xen.
