OK, in grub terms, (hd0,0) is your /boot partition. That is the one you 
feed to grub.conf to find your boot files.
From your grub.conf file (with small change):

title Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS-up (2.6.9-67.EL)
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-67.EL ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00
> rhgb quiet
        initrd /initrd-2.6.9-67.EL.img
title Xen 3.0 / XenLinux 2.6
       root (hd0,0)
       kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-xen root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 ro 
> rhgb

Apparently, something is missing from this file. Here is an example from 
my grub.conf file:
# Xen 3.2 experiment
title CentOS (2.6.18-53.1.14.el5xen) XEN 3.2 FROM XENSOURCE
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /xen.gz-3.2 com2=19200,8n1 console=com2,vga
        module /vmlinuz-2.6.18-53.1.14.el5xen ro root=LABEL=/1
> console=xvc xencons=xvc
        module /initrd-2.6.18-53.1.14.el5xen.img

First, the /boot disk (/dev/sda1) is given as "root" for this grub 
config file. So all files in that partition are now in "/" (as Phillip 
already pointed out).
Second, you need to define the kernel to load, which is Xen. The console 
is attached to /dev/ttyS1 on my server as it contains an IPMI card for 
remote console. You won't need those com2= console= parameters.
Third, you need to define the Linux kernel and initrd images as modules. 
In your case, without the console= and xencons= parameters.
Bas.
