Not sure about the FC supplied utilities for configuring and starting new 
DomUs, but with SUSE - presumably you're talking about either SUSE Linux 10.1 
or SLES 10 - the XEN enabled kernel  is called:
vmlinuz-2.6.16.16-1.6-xen and is part of the kernel-xen RPM

You'll also need an initrd which can be extracted from the
mkinst-initrd RPM on CD4 - the file you're looking for is called inst-initrd.

I can send along my initial installation xen config file for SLES10 if you 
want (it's not very complex though)

Hope this helps,
Jon
