Don't know if it helps but Xen has been fully integrated into the newly 
released Fedora Core 4

 From the release notes:

http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/4/i386/os/RELEASE-NOTES

       "Xen is a virtual machine that can
        securely run multiple operating systems in their own sandboxed
        domains. Xen has been integrated into Fedora Core to work in a
        seamless   fashion.   You  can  read  more  about  Xen  at
        http://fedora.redhat.com/projects/virtualization/."

No I haven't tried it yet.
