Does your guest filesystem have an empty /proc directory?

You might also be missing an empty /dev directory.

Try mounting your guest system and create those two directories if they
are missing:
mkdir x
mount -o loop yourguest.img x
(not sure if the new xenguest.py creates a partition or a disk. I am not
sure how to mount partitions within a disk image)
ls x
and if they do not exist: mkdir x/dev x/proc
umount x

And try again.
