[CentOS-virt] Xen vs. KVM console

Hi,
I'm trying to get the console support in KVM working as well as on Xen but 
right now I'm stuck. I followed these instructions:
http://prefetch.net/blog/index.php/2009/06/17/redirecting-the-centos-and-fedora-linux-console-to-a-serial-port-virsh-console-edition/

This works out fairly well except that I cannot watch the bootup of the 
machine in the vnc console anymore only on the serial console and I also 
don't get any output on the vnc console on shutdown.

Is there a way to configure the serial console in such a way that I don't 
lose a part of the functionality of the vnc console?

Regards,
   Dennis
