10.6: How to install Win XP Pro Service Pack 3 in Boot Camp 3

Because Boot Camp 3 mounts your Mac OS disk as a read-only disk in Windows, this is the first partition the system sees, and the SP3 install fails.
Wow. Good thing that it only mounts as read only. I can't imagine what kind of damage it would do if it were allowed to write to the volume.
