I'll maintain this list until everything is resolved...

Problem:

Not all my disk devices are mounting, swap is missing, or things in /proc/partitions don't match what's in your config profile.

Solution:

Keep rebooting until you see all your devices in /proc/partitions. I've got an email into the xen mailing list, awaiting response.

Problem:
Code: Checking root filesystem
[/sbin/fsck.ext3 (1) -- /] fsck.ext3 -a /dev/hda1
/dev/hda1 is mounted.  e2fsck: Cannot continue, aborting.

Solution:

Make sure that the "read-only" flag is set in your configuration profile.

The migration routine is supposed to do this for you, but sometimes it's missing still. Looking into it.

The read-only flag setting has been fixed, as well as the missing devices issue.

I'd appreciate a report if either of these still happen for someone.

Currently, there are no outstanding issues with Xen :)
