DevStack _will_ help, and that's why we keep telling you to go look there, and I have no idea why you keep refusing.  You don't have to run it, but it's up-to-date, and it's working, so it's a nice, clean, self-documenting example of at least one way that someone has managed to make this work.

If you have differences between your system and DevStack because of the differences between Debian and Ubuntu or XenServer and XCP, then fine.  If you have differences that you don't understand, then you're probably doing it wrong.  That's why we tell you, on a weekly basis, to go look at DevStack if you want to see how a flag should be set.

You can either do this the easy way, by following other people's working systems, or you can do it the hard way, by deep-diving into every single detail.  I'm fine if you want to do it the hard way -- you'll certainly learn a lot, and it's probably very interesting and useful knowledge for the future.  Just don't keep complaining that it's all too hard and then refuse to take the easy option.
