Try:
         kernel /xen-3.0.gz console=vga
!!! Note removed   -^-   space !!!
         module /vmlinuz-2.6.16-xen root=LABEL=/1 ro console=tty0
console=ttyS1,19200n8
         module /initrd-2.6-xen.img

You can't have two lines saying "kernel" in grub, and the linux kernel
used by Xen is different format than Grub expects, that's why you get
the error.
