i successfully installed sl3.05 under sl4.1 (scientific linux is another
rhel clone like centos)
i run the dom0 and with the binary rhel4.1 xen packages (including 
the 2.6 kernel package) from xen source.

what i did: 

* copy sl3 installation in the domu partition
* replace the fsck.ext3 and e2fsck with sl4 versions
(if your domu partitions are ext3)
* install the xensource binary rhel4.1 kernel in domu
(in the domu you will get a lot of warnings, ignore)
* install module-init-tools from sl4 in the sl3 domu
* mv /lib/tls /lib/tls.old
or install
