I've installed a FC5 domU under RHEL5-beta2 dom0 with virt-manager.

As the disk for domU I used:

phy:/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol02,xvda,w

In the domU I have partitions:

/dev/xvda1 on / type ext3 (rw)
/dev/xvda2 on /var type ext3 (rw)

How do I access these partitions from dom0? For example if I take an
LVM snapshot of
LogVol02, how do I mount the / partition of the domU installed on the
volume for backup purposes?

You use the "lomount" command, I believe. Type "lomount --help" to gain access to the partitions inside :/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol02.
