Maybe I'm missing something... That should be console=com1 so you have a typo either in this message or in your tests. > sync_console gives an extra message but that's all I could see.

I tried console=ttyS0 as well but it didn't make a difference It is hvc0 to send it to xen and thus onto the console you specified above. You can get some early debug messages of the kernel with earlyprintk=xen and "log_lvl=all guest_loglvl=all" are recommended at http://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Debugging_Xen for the xen hypervisor line.
