It is becaues of XFS but not of GRUB. XFS uses the boot sector of a partition
for its own purpose, which is quite incompatible with the traditional way in
PC. This report should be sent to XFS developers instead.

Summary: GRUB installation in an XFS partition invalidates the partition
Original Submission: I tried to install GRUB in an XFS partition. After the
installation Linux does no longer recognize this partition and GRUB also
doesn't know the partition type.
SuSE Linux 8.1 (Kernel 2.4.19).

This is not a bug, XFS does not support partition bootloaders.

I used the 'install' command to install stage1 in the boot sector of the
partition. Installation in the MBR makes no sense because it's the 2nd SCSI
disk. The MBR of hd0 holds the Windows NT bootloader.
