If I good understand question, then problem is that is used in this case some partition-less technology, so grub should act on whole disc and problem is that perl-bootloader doesn't support this case and don't expect it. So if I good understand it, could you provide some resource about this technology?
re: pv-grub, http://blog.xen.org/index.php/2008/08/28/xen-33-feature-pv-grub/ as per above, the capability has been officially added to xen source, http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-changelog/2008-09/msg00135.html and is perfectly valid usage. commercial Xen hosting vendors currently use it, e.g., http://www.linode.com/wiki/index.php/PV-GRUB where, interestingly, they actually offer openSUSE as a pv-grub DomU target. which requires (hd0) be used as the grub root. i'm not certain this is a perl-bootloader issue, but rather an issue of an unpatched grub in opensuse -- i.e., one that can't handle the valid case of (hd0) without the can't-read-the-filesystem error above ...
Also as that it is not supported It should not be reported as bug but as enhancement and new feature to features.opensuse.org.
