this looks like something may be missing in the dhcp configuration... could
you try to boot the client with a static IP configuration on the kernel
command line?
If it doesn't work: how is you xen bridge set up? the name looks quite
'custom' to me...
you can try to boot the minimal xen ttylinux and checking the network
connectivity from there...

network problems... the machine has problems connecting to the server's
portmapper, which matches quite the error about the incomplete network
configuration...
