You should be able to launch NetBSD DomUs using pygrub directly, but
extracting the kernel shouldn't be a problem anyway. Out of curiosity,
what is BOSS?

Could you login to the NetBSD DomU using the serial console?

Try the following from the Dom0: xm/xl console <DomU-name> (use either
xm or xl depending on the toolstack version of your Dom0).

If you are able to get the console, you should see what IP/MAC address
the NetBSD DomU has taken.

I'm not really sure about that, I don't know what Eucalyptus tries to
do to the DomUs. Also it will be helpful to post the configuration
file used to boot the NetBSD DomU.
