Hi Brian,

Yes.  Dom0 uses LVM and passes through LVs to the paravirts.  All domUs 
share a single /usr partition that is mounted read only.
    'phy:vg0/usr,hda2,r'

There has never been a problem that I've noticed and I have been doing 
this since 3.0.2-2.  (you can tell by the "hda" disk name :)
