Yet another Xen build error, xc_dom_core.c:208: No such file or..

So my Dom0 is Arch Linux is my DomU is going to be yet again Arch Linux that I will later put bells and whistles on (ArkOS is Arch Linux + personal web server).

It's my first time setting up Xen, so I don't know what I'm doing and I just got to the part where I need to configure DomU.
I simply followed the wiki.

My DomU config at /etc/xen/ArkOS_Dev_PV_domU.cfg:

name = 'arkOS_Dev_PV_domU'
kernel = "/mnt/arch/boot/x86_64/vmlinuz"
ramdisk = "/mnt/arch/boot/x86_64/archiso.img"
extra = "archisobasedir=arch archisolabel=ARCH_201510"
memory = 256
disk = [ "phy:/dev/sda4,sda1,w", "file:/home/xen/ISO/archlinux-2015.10.01-dual.iso,sdb,r" ]
vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3e:XX:XX:XX,bridge=xenbr0' ]

This is the error I get when I try to create the DomU:

$ xl create -c /path/to/config/file
Parsing config from /etc/xen/ArkOS_Dev_PV_domU.cfg
xc: error: panic: xc_dom_core.c:208: failed to open file: No such file or directory: Internal error
libxl: error: libxl_dom.c:546:libxl__build_pv: xc_dom_kernel_file failed: No such file or directory
libxl: error: libxl_create.c:1121:domcreate_rebuild_done: cannot (re-)build domain: -3
libxl: info: libxl.c:1691:devices_destroy_cb: forked pid 845 for destroy of domain 9

I might be getting the setup wrong.
I put /dev/sda4 as the physical disk as it's the home partition, but perhaps it's the .img I need it to point at?
