Hi,

First off, I should point out that this list is mainly concerned with the Open 
Source release of Xen and that people here do not know so much about 
XenEnterprise.  It's OK to ask XenEnterprise questions here, but people won't 
always know the answers as most people here haven't used it.

There are forums on XenSource's website where you might have more luck:

Before doing any more fiddling, I'd advise you to try and back up the domain's 
virtual disk.  This will give you something to go back to in case your 
attempts to fix things make things worse.

Can you get access to the virtual machine's disk onto a working Linux box 
somehow?  Does XenEnterprise have the ability to export a virtual machine's 
disk to a file or something like that?

If you can get access to the virtual disk then we can figure out how to poke 
in the filesystem and try to retrieve your data.

Cheers,
Mark
