Yes, I don't think there will really be anything BitFolk-specific.
Most usual kernel configurations do boot as a Xen PV guest these
days unless someone goes out of their way to make it not. If you
have issues there then maybe you'd need to ask Alyssa for the kernel
config they use.
For bootloader considerations just use grub2 and make sure /boot is
on a filesystem type that BitFolk's grub can understand, which right
now means ext* or XFS (maybe even fat32, but why).
Would be lovely to have an article here…
