If I'm not wrong, exporting a device with ioemu makes it behave like a hard disk. Therefore, boot sector and partitions must exist inside this /dev/sdb1 (like a complete disk image) in order for you to boot.

Thanks for your fast replies.

Sorry that I forgot to mention that we want use hvm. If I switch to
paravirtualization, the domU boots without any problem with the modified
kernel.

Changing the disk variable to the following changes nothing.
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/sdb1,ioemu:hda1,w' ]
