per default i see no grub2 with a fresh Debian 5.0.x installation:
dpkg -l | grep grub
ii  grub                                  0.97-47lenny2                 GRand 
Unified Bootloader (Legacy version)
ii  grub-common                           1.96+20080724-16              GRand 
Unified Bootloader, version 2 (common files)

It seems you messed up your bootmanager configuration. It should have an entry 
like:

title           Xen 3.2-1-i386 / Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.26-2-xen-686
root            (hd0,0)
kernel          /boot/xen-3.2-1-i386.gz dom0_mem=256M
module          /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-2-xen-686 root=/dev/md0 ro console=tty0
module          /boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-2-xen-686
