Anyway, it's working now. I had to change the Xen config in /boot/ grub/menu and tell Xen not to use ttyS0 as a serial console for itself.

Good to hear it's working.

FYI, for future reference since not many people seem to know this, simple GNU 'screen' is also a terminal emulator and is *much* more simple than minicom, kermit, etc.

$ yum install screen
$ screen /dev/ttyS0

'man screen' for more info.
