This is the one I am using for Debian. Notice the rootdelay=15, which
helps with my LVM root LV.

### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen ###
menuentry 'Debian GNU/Linux, with Linux 3.0.0-1-686-pae and XEN
4.1-amd64' --class debian --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os
--class xen {
        insmod part_msdos
        insmod ext2
        set root='(hd1,msdos1)'
        search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 4a996a2b-8e3c-45ef-9f0f-894dd2df519b
        echo    'Loading Linux 3.0.0-1-686-pae ...'
        multiboot       /xen-4.1-amd64.gz placeholder
        module  /vmlinuz-3.0.0-1-686-pae placeholder
root=/dev/mapper/kronos-root ro  quiet rootdelay=15
        echo    'Loading initial ramdisk ...'
        module  /initrd.img-3.0.0-1-686-pae
}

By the way, Ubuntu 11.10 server has out of the box support. You just
need to grab the linux-image-server

Hope that helps.

Thanks,
Todd
