Kernel upgrade
What's the latest kernel version for Red Hat 9.0?
Can I upgrade kernel without redhat netwotk (not using up2date)?
Thanks

Upgrading kernel without up2date is possible and for many is the default way. In the Rackshack's forums there is a good howto about it, if I remember well.

latest kernel from kernel.org is 2.4.23.
I prefer my custom kernel rather than redhat kernel.

^^^ Build the kernel with -march=athlon-xp gcc flags, that'll help for a start.

Never built my own kernel before, what things do I have to pay attention to?
I've built all other software on my servers, the kernel is the only thing that remained untouched so far..
