I have got /boot in an xfs partition and have been able to install grub.
The grub-install script did not complete and stayed in a D+ mode as reported by
ps.
This seemed to be caused by the xfs_freeze performed
if xfs_freeze -f ${grubdir} ; then xfs_frozen=true ; fi
My workaround was to run the following from a console window:
sudo xfs_freeze -u /boot
Then the grub_install completed successfully, and grub has worked
perfectly since.
