You will find some good documentation @ 
http://people.redhat.com/~riel/RHEL4-Xen-HOWTO

If you do not have a processor with the VT extension, you can always use 
qemu to install RHEL4 in FV.

As written in the doc, you will need to use the kernel from
http://people.redhat.com/~jbaron/rhel4/RPMS.kernel/

Have fun,
Mono
