Hello. This problem appears to be the result of a bug in QEMU that
have been fixed in the Subversion repository, as the following log
message indicates:

    target-i386: Fix jmp im on x86_64 when executing 32-bit code

    When running grub-install (32-bit) on an x86_64 Linux system in qemu, it
    hangs on a pagefault forever, because an integer overflow occurs on the
    IP on "jmp im". This patch masks overflows for 32 bit IPs on a 64 bit
    system, just like it is done for 16 bit IPs already.

    Using this patch, x86_64 openSUSE installation works again.
