Yes.
Which RHEL?
Have you upgraded enough packages to satisfy the 2.6 kernel
requirements? From Documentation/Changes:
# Current Minimal Requirements
# ============================
#
# Upgrade to at *least* these software revisions before thinking you've
# encountered a bug! If you're unsure what version you're currently
# running, the suggested command should tell you.
#
# Again, keep in mind that this list assumes you are already
# functionally running a Linux 2.4 kernel. Also, not all tools are
# necessary on all systems; obviously, if you don't have any PCMCIA (PC
# Card) hardware, for example, you probably needn't concern yourself
# with pcmcia-cs.
#
# o Gnu C 2.95.3 # gcc --version
# o Gnu make 3.79.1 # make --version
# o binutils 2.12 # ld -v
# o util-linux 2.10o # fdformat --version
# o module-init-tools 0.9.10 # depmod -V
# o e2fsprogs 1.29 # tune2fs
# o jfsutils 1.1.3 # fsck.jfs -V
# o reiserfsprogs 3.6.3 # reiserfsck -V 2>&1|grep reiserfsprogs
# o xfsprogs 2.6.0 # xfs_db -V
# o pcmcia-cs 3.1.21 # cardmgr -V
# o quota-tools 3.09 # quota -V
# o PPP 2.4.0 # pppd --version
# o isdn4k-utils 3.1pre1 # isdnctrl 2>&1|grep version
# o nfs-utils 1.0.5 # showmount --version
# o procps 3.2.0 # ps --version
# o oprofile 0.5.3 # oprofiled --version
If that doesn't work, then you might want to try the appropriate RHEL
list.
James.
