Greetings all,  I am soliciting advice on upgrading the stock kernel of redhat 7.1.   My biggest concern is the fact that they use the 2.96 compiler.  From what I understand it doesn't compile the kernel source properly.  Should I upgrade to a newer compiler before a kernel upgrade?  Downgrade?  There used to be RPMs available for kernel upgrades but I can't find them on redhats site.  Has anyone upgraded a kernel on 7.1  if so can you give a short description of the steps.  You know  upgrade/downgrade compiler, got source code from X, compiled, etc.  Nothing necessarily in detail just an overview.

Thanks

Calvin
