Why HVM? PV should provide better performance, and last time I tested it works.

drop "type=ioemu" from there (doesn't really do anything anyway)

Try adding xen_platform_pci=0 to domU config file, and try running
"ethtool -K tx off" for vif*.* and tap* on dom0.

If using xen_platform_pci works, it means you're using qemu-emulated
devices. You can change it later after domU is successfully installed
so that it'd use PV drivers.
