I assume you ACTUALLY have the correct partition/LV with LABEL=/ on
domU's disk image?

You should see the disks and detected partition tables on boot. Your
log only xvdb is detected with "unknown partition table", which is
weird. Does the disk image actually HAVE partition on it, or do you
create a filesystem directly on that image? What does your domU config
file looks like? What does "fdisk -l /path/to/your/disk-image" look
like?
