Can I double check the domU is a PV domain, not an HVM domain? Apart
from lack of networking the domU works? If so, seems strange that the
Debian kernel has xenblk but not xennet.

So you specify your own kernel/initrd in the domU config rather
installing the 2.6.18 domU kernel inside /boot of the domU and then
using pygrub?

I don't think the problem is with your dom0, just that the domU
doesn't have the xennet driver,
