I finally had a chance to play with pv-grub today. I got everything
working in my Arch64 node.

How-to:

1) Install grub.
2) pacman -U http://allurelinux.org/pkgs/{aufs2-2.6.32_20091203,kernel26-linode-2.6.32.2}-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz
3) Edit "/boot/grub/menu.lst". This should suffice:

#To use with pv-grub
timeout   0
default   0
groot=(hd0)
title  Arch Linux Linode (By Nezmer)
root   (hd0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz26-linode root=/dev/xvda

4) Choose to boot "pv-grub-x86_64" kernel from Linode's Dashboard.

The kernel is based on Arch kernel but without initrd and with this config:
