Well, first of all you could have chosen not to be so rude about it. 
Second, why not try other distros? You could try slackware, where I'm 
sure you can recompile your kernel as you wish. You could try debian, 
which I hear has a very good apt-get setup for easy updates. Third, you 
are moving your server center to FC2 without researching or testing 
first? From my view, the distro isn't at fault here. Always research 
before moving forward. If it's critical servers you're trying to 
upgrade, what feature of FC2 do you need exactly? Figure all these out 
first, then try and complain.
