That's not what I asked.
The key point is you need to have correct root. If you actually create
the filesystem with "mkfs.ext3 -L /" or run "e2label ...", then the
label should be there, and you don't need to worry (on grub.conf
anyway) whether it's hda2, sda2, or xvda2.
On the other hand, if you create the image from scratch, and did NOT
create the label manually, and transfer the files using
rsync/tar/whatever, you will not have the label.

again, I didn't ask that, and it's not relevant really.
I asked
>> What does your domU config
>> file looks like?
... to know how you map the disk from your config file. For example,
in my system:
disk = [
'tap:aio:/z/rhel6/xvda.img,xvda,w',
]
means I map the disk as xvda. Your log is weird, in that it shows 3
block devices detected, but only "xvdb" shown. The config file might
provide some information as to why it happens.
I also asked
>> What does "fdisk -l /path/to/your/disk-image" look like
... cause it might be that you simply don't have a parition at all. Or
your root is on LVM, not a partition. Mine shows something like this
# fdisk -l /z/rhel6/xvda.img
last_lba(): I don't know how to handle files with mode 81a4
You must set cylinders.
You can do this from the extra functions menu.
Disk /z/rhel6/xvda.img: 0 MB, 0 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 0 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/z/rhel6/xvda.img1 * 1 64 512000 83 Linux
Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/z/rhel6/xvda.img2 64 1306 9972736 8e Linux LVM
Partition 2 has different physical/logical endings:
phys=(1023, 254, 63) logical=(1305, 106, 17)
... which shows I use LVM, and "/" is located in LVM (cause first
partition is too small to be "/")

I didn't ask how it was on the original dom0. I asked what your
current image has right now.
If you simply copy the image then the partition might be the same, but
in that case you've made an obvious mistake: your "/" was on xvda1.
Passing "root=/dev/sda2" is simply silly.
It's useless to go into details right now without knowing what your
current image looks like.

I didn't ask whether you create it or not.
I asked what your domU config looks like, and what fdisk output on
your current image looks like.
If you don't answer it then there's nothing I can do to help.
