Ouch :D

Some suggestions to try (try each of them separately):
- try running "ethtool -K netdev tx off" from dom0, where netdev is
your domU network device as seen on dom0 (e.g. vif1.0, tap0, etc.)
- use "xen_emul_unplug=never" on kernel command line (possibly by
editing or adding parameters to clonezilla's boot selection). it
SHOULD present BOTH emulated and pv devices, so you could choose
qemu-disk (hda) for clonezilla to work, while using pv network device
(either eth0 or eth1) for connection. Use "ls -lad
/sys/class/net/eth?/device/driver" to find out which device is using
which driver.
- use qemu to start it up (using manually-created config file). It'll
be slow (as you don't have either cpu acceleration or pv drivers), but
it should work
