Well that was more helpful than I could reasonable hope for but alas, the error didn't change much: device-mapper: dm-raid45: initialized v0.2594l Waiting for driver initialization.

I wonder if i need to mount the block device and edit fstab?

This brings me back to suspecting the problem is in the different file structures. I'm still trying to wrap my head around the other replies in this thread.
mkinitrd in dom0 with xenblk and xennet and use that new initrd for the guests. After you get the guests up and running, install kernel-xen in each one and switch to using pygrub. The following should handle the first part, but no warranties implied. :)
mkinitrd --with=xenblk --with=xennet --preload=xenblk --preload=xennet /boot/initrd-2.6.18-164.6.1.el5xen-domU.img 2.6.18-164.6.1.el5xen
for i in /etc/xen/guest[0-9]*; do cp ${i} ${i}.bak sed -i '/^ramdisk/cramdisk = "/boot/initrd-2.6.18-164.6.1.el5xen-domU.img"' ${i} done
