I wonder if the person built their own kernel? One of the things
/etc/grub.d/20-xenlinux is that it scans in /boot/config-XXX to see
if CONFIG_XEN_DOM0 is defined. Well, if you try to install the kernel
doing:

 make oldconfig
 make install

it won't put the config file in /boot directory. So Grub won't create
an Xen entry for it. The fix is to manually copy the config to /boot
and it works just right.

Or just use kernel RPMS.
