You could propably use CentOS 5.2 als a dom0. It is shipped with a kernel-xen package 2.6.18.x. It works fine for me but i haven't tried F10 so far since i'm acutally downloading the iso image of F10 which takes a long time when using a 1024kpb/s line, you know ;)
I believe you need Centos 5.3 for F10 xen guest clients which, as RHEL5.3 beta has only just appeared, probably won't be available until after Fedora 8 has EOLed.

Yeah.. I believe RHEL 5.2 and CentOS 5.2 has too old python-virtinst
to handle/install F10 guests.. RHEL 5.3 will contain updated python-virtinst that supports F10 guests. It is already included in RHEL 5.3 beta.

If you can't try RHEL 5.3 beta dom0, you could try with installing
python-virtinst-0.300.2-10.el5 or newer to your RHEL 5.2 / CentOS 5.2 dom0..
it should add support for F10 domUs. For more information check that
bugzilla link above.

RHEL 5.3 beta announcement:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/rhelv5-announce/2008-October/msg00000.html

contains:
python-virtinst-0.300.2-11.el5

Oh, and it seems you also need newer libxc:

Yes, that is correct - RHEL-5.2 Xen doesn't understand the new bzImage
style kernels.

So is there any way to get F10 domU running on F8 dom0 ?

I don't want to have to downgrade all my dom0s to RHEL or CentOS ...
