The domU is PV. The domU works perfectly apart the network.

Yes exactly. I have heard scary things about pygrub, so I want to
install all kernels in dom0.

What I meant, is that if I install additional packaged kernels in my
dom0, could the dom0 get broken? because that already happened to me
in the past, when I installed by mistake
xen-linux-system-2.6.18-5-xen-amd64, it completely destroyed my dom0,
and I had to reinstall the server from scratch, so I don't want to get
into this anymore.
