Retried with
kernel = "/vserver/dists/netbsd/HEAD/i386/binary/kernel/netbsd-INSTALL_XEN3_U"
#kernel="/home/bouyer/netbsd-INSTALL_XEN3_U"
#ramdisk = "/vserver/dists/netbsd/HEAD/i386/installation/floppy/boot-big.fs"
memory = 128
name = "netbsd3.0"
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/Debian/netbsd3.0,0x3,w' ]
#disk = [ 'file:/tmp/file,hda,w' ]
#disk = [ 'file:/vserver/dists/netbsd/HEAD/i386/installation/floppy/boot-big.fs,hda,w' ]
# Replace with your IP info
#ip = "a.b.c.d"
#netmask = "255.255.x.x"
#gateway = "a.b.c.d"
#serial='pty'
identical results.
