You can probably follow existing instructions for booting the opensuse 
installer using grub2 with
the exception of replacing the typical device references with xen devices.

Tab-complete is your friend; for example under grub2 (unless you are running a 
very recent version)
xen block devices have to be named 'xen/<diskname>' not 'hd<num>' .
