kernel 2.4 & redhat 6.2

[Eric Barendt]

I've got 2.4 running great on a couple rh6.2 boxes (my workstation & my laptop), and unfortunately switching to another distro isn't an option as this is a server at the ISP I work for :)..

Guess my only choice then is to figure out which packages need updating... oh well!

Thanks tho,
Eric
