 You could do a fully virtualised install using virt-manager very easily.  You 
should be able covert to a PV install later, if you want.
Alternatively, you can build an ext3 filesystem for the guest manually (inside 
and image or partition).  You can then use the debootstrap tool to build a 
Debian/Ubuntu filesystem inside that.

Hi all
I want to install Ubuntu (which is debian based) on top of CentOS, but
since it's not a nativa RH based distro, I don't know which way to
install it. Do I install it as fully virtualized , or paravirtualized ?
What is better in this case?
 
 
Hi Mark,
I have tried that already, but have had no luck. On CentOS 5.1 trying to 
install Ubuntu as a Fully Virtualized guest, it doesn't go further than 
the boot loader. I don't know why, and can't see anything in the logs 
why either. 
Installing it as a PV guest, I need to run through some debootstrap 
stuff, as per this site: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=630886 
But, I get stuck where I need to run "update-grub" - which I don't have 
on my system.
