I tried SLED10SP1B4 with XFS and I get the same issue. Then I tried with SLED10GA and I like the way it thinks. It won't even let me choose to install GRUB on the root partition if I use XFS, but when I select ReiserFS och ext3, I get the option to do it. So... My conclusion is that it's NOT possible to use XFS on an extended partition and have GRUB installed on it's root partition.
