It's not that difficult to add, you might want to try adding it yourself.
Just make sure the hda/sda syntax still works as well...

This looks like you haven't compiled any filesystem into your kernel!?

vga_xen and xenkbc don't exist in domains other than domain0 since
only domain0 gets access to physical devices.
