You almost always want to replace the contents of /etc/redhat-release with 
the same contents of that file from the 'other EL'...

I'm not sure what the proper contents are on EL3, but on my Centos 4:

# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 2)
# cat /etc/centos-release
CentOS release 4.2 (Final)

Makes the HP installers much, much happier.
