So if I setup a secondary I/O domain with it's own HBA's then my

fine with that.  My question now is where does the secondary domain
get its boot disks?   If it gets it from the primary won't the
secondary freeze if the primary goes down, and with it the guest
domains?  Should my secondary's boot disk be a LUN?

Yes

The secondary cannot use any of the internal disks as they are all owned by the primary domain. You must use disks that are attached to the pci bus(es) the secondary domain owns, this is therefore going to be an external disk and may be a simple disk or a lun ( assuming the correct pci cards are fitted )
