Right; the XSLT specified (using the -xsl option) should output FO when
using the xml input (-xml), which FOP will then use to produce your
PDF.  I think you want something like 'xsl/fo/docbook.xsl' instead of
'xsl/html/docbook.xsl'; the latter produces html output, and FOP doesn't
know what to do with that.

Take care,
