A CD isn't directly bootable, it requires (depending on its type) some tricks 
by the bios to boot (like loading a floppy image from CD and creating a 
virtual fdd for it)

Try to extract the boot image from the CD, and pass the CD drive and the boot 
image to xen. Maybe you also need to extract an initrd or something from 
there and pass that, too, but I don't know enough about netbsd to give any 
hint there.

The easier way will probably be to install NetBSD without xen, and use that 
root partition to boot the netbsd-xenu kernel.
