I'm not saying this is your problem, but your "CD image" parameter seems incorrect base on the wiki (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraXenQuickstartFC6 )

 

Look at number 6 under "Building a Fedora Guest System using 'xenguest-install'"

 

 

   6.  What is the install location? This is the path to a Fedora Core 6 installation tree in the format used by anaconda. NFS, FTP, and HTTP locations are all supported. Examples include:

          * nfs:my.nfs.server.com:/path/to/test2/tree/

          * http://my.http.server.com/path/to/tree/

          * ftp://my.ftp.server.com/path/to/tree

 

      {i} Installation must be a network type. It is not possible to install from a local disk or CDROM. It is possible, however, to set up an installation tree on the host OS and then export it as an NFS share.
