yes, it's suse-specific (it's already been requested that they support
pvgrub ...)

but, doesn't seem like the issue :-/

removing the use of the domUloader.py bootloader

     builder      = 'linux'
-    bootloader   = '/usr/lib/xen/boot/domUloader.py'
-    bootargs     = '--entry=xvda1:vmlinuz-xen,/boot/initrd-xen'
+   kernel       = '/home/xen_store/distros/opensuse112/xenboot/vmlinuz-xen'
+   ramdisk      = '/home/xen_store/distros/opensuse112/xenboot/initrd-xen'

still results on the same problem/crash -- as lang as

    vfb = ['']

exists.  again, simply removing the vfb spec'n allows the DomU to sanely boot.

thanks.
