First of all run "zypper update kernel-xen" to get JB's 2.6.31.8-xen installed.
Second, vm-install is completely broken via my experience. Bugzilla threads opened by me stay unanswered for a while. So , be ready for virsh scripting all around, either forget about Libvirt.

 when I put >the new kernel in grub it will not boot as it can't find the root.  I set >root=/dev/cciss/c0p01 which should have worked.  I tried by UUID, >root=UUID=9da5323b-e47c-4367-bed0-2d2b53ba5a45 and still no joy

Regarding root=/dev/cciss/c0p01 does it match "df -h" reported path to "/" .

Shouldn't it be /dev/cciss/c0d0p1 ? 
Does the initrd have lvm support? with mkinitrd it's "-f lvm2". 

  Is there any somewhat current (at least 3.3) yet stable 32 bit version of Xen out there with a simple installer?

Try openSUSE,  it has kernel 2.6.31, up to date Xen and a simple installer.

Hth,
Ervin
