 I assume you have something like this in your elilo.conf:
 
 root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
 append="com1=115200,8n1 -- xencons=ttyS0 console=ttyS0 ro"
 
 Older versions of elilo stuff the root= option in on the wrong side of
 the "--", passing the option to Xen instead of the Linux kernel.  The
 simple fix is to either update elilo or change elilo.conf to:
 
 append="com1=115200,8n1 -- root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 xencons=ttyS0 console=ttyS0 ro"
 
 (removing the separate root= line)
 
 Thanks,
 
 Alex
