It works, right? There's also virt-manager which you can use.

Tutorials for Xen is somewhat hit-and-miss. If your environment is not
exactly the same, you usually need some changes (like what the network
bridge name is).

Ouch. You just deliberately make stuff much harder for yourself.
Debian is great, but it's not exactly suitable for a "newbie" to use
as dom0. It doesn't work out the box like Centos does (for example,
the default bridge is not set up until you edit some files).

Definitely, create your own bridge by creating your own entry on
/etc/network/interfaces.
If you don't know what I'm talking about, better stick to Centos dom0
and it's stock Xen. Really.
Then you can try compiling your own version of Xen and dom0 kernel.
After that, you can pretty much use any distro you want as base.
