    Hello,
    
    Sorry for the delay, I don't read freebsd-virt as often as I should.
    There's also freebsd-xen@ for FreeBSD/Xen specific issues (although
    posting here is fine).

    When was the last time that you updated world (or more specifically
    /boot/)?
    
    Could you please attempt the following and try again:
    
    cd sys/boot/ && make && make install
    
    I've just tested the port with the current loader code and seems to
    work fine.
    
    There was a brief period of time when HEAD couldn't boot a Xen kernel,
    IIRC it's ~3month ago or so. That was fixed, but you might just happen
    to have a loader from that time.

I buildworld/buildkernel on a regular basis:

Note: I have *NOT* updated the efi partition stuff.  

This is root-on-ZFS if it matters, and it *IS* EFI.

Do I need to update the EFI boot partition?
