As Brad pointed out, you need to use the block device.  The HOWTO says

  https://wiki.netbsd.org/ports/xen/howto/#index14h2

are you using file: or phy:, and/or are you mounting vnd yourself?

After you changed rdsk to dsk, does it work ok?

If things still don't work, you should post your xen config file
lines about disks, striving to drive mindreading to zero.

Have you configured a virtual interface, and did you mark it for bridge
mode or NAT?
