 Here is a tutorial from HowtoForge about installing Xen on CentOS 5.2. 
It covers install the Hypervisor and setting up some guests. Hope it helps.
First, a warm hello.
Second, I use virtualization in a very amateur way by sticking with 
workstation type products; vmware fusion & workstation and microsofts 
virtual pc. 
These have drawbacks as they require a host to run and a script to 
boot up the various guest os's as well as other short comings. 
I am ready to take it to a new level, xen server and am really stoked!
I just installed xen on centos 5.2, very easy.
I am hoping to apply this hypervisor approach were I have some thin 
layer of a virtual traffic cop of sorts running 2 oses (centos 5.2 for 
a drupal server and rhel 5 runnning a zimbra server) on my Intelx64 
box which is; 
Intel Core
2x2.4GHz
4GB mem
I just enabled Intel Virtualization Technology in the BIOS (it sounded 
good and probably relates to what I want to do). 
Can some one direct me to some docs (haven't found any) on installing 
a hyper visor on my box and its requirements? 
I'm pretty stoked to be getting away from vmware and using what seems 
to be a linux friendly approach.

Although it says it is for i386 it should also work for x86_64. Have fun.
