Ok, let forget about the LVN question, since as I understand  that is
not your situation. It seems to me if the FC5 system is booted from
another disk, you could mount a partition from disk /dev/hdb (let us
say /dev/hdb1  (containing the FC4 partiton) by executing:
mount -t ext3 -o default /dev/hdb1 /mnt/fc4

Then the files on that partition would be available to you. A line
in /etc/fstab such as:
/dev/hdb1  /mnt/fc4 ext3 defaults 0 0
would do the same thig.

Or am I missing what you problen is?
