I don't think using the setup command on a partition is very wise.. better use the
install command to only install the stage1 into the partition boot sector, or install
grub in the MBR ("setup (hd0)" without a partition number)
Btw, I am not sure if XFS has a boot area in the first block of the partition. If not
you will have to install grub in the MBR (hd0).
