This is version of Xen running at CentOS 5.1:-
3.1.0-53.1.4.el5 (it's not 3.0.3)
Kernel is already patched.
> SunOS Release 5.11 Version snv_78 64-bit
Looks like you try to create SNV78 DomU (it's not Solaris 10)

I can suggest to try workaround working for
Xen v3.1.0-53.el5 running at CentOS 5.1 ( not patched )
*************************************************************************
Root cause of issue error in blkif.py . If still there fix anyway.
*************************************************************************
# cd /usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/xen/xend/server
# vi blkif.py and made this change:
devid = blkif.blkdev_name_to_number(dev)
-if not devid:
+if devid is None:
raise VmError('Unable to find number for device (%s)' % (dev))finally:
# /etc/init.d/xend restart
Create SNV78 DomU with usual profile
Select DHCP during install.
Complete it.Change profile for runtime
and start up DomU again.
Modify /etc/system as usual for build < 81
Run:-
# bootadm update-archive
Copy (scp) boot_archive to Dom0
Make final changes to profile:-
ramdisk = "/usr/lib/xen-solaris/boot_archive"
