[rhn-users] Installing Fedora Core 1 smp kernel causes kernel panic

[Michael Belanger]

Greetings!
In an effort to workaround this problem:  (Extremely high iowait with 
3Ware array and moderate disk activity)
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=121434

I am trying to install the Fedora kernel: 
kernel-smp-2.4.22-1.2199.nptl.x86_64.rpm.

Naturally, I do have the x86_64 architecture as well as two processors.

I installed the kernel okay, but when I try and boot with it the kernel 
panics.

The system itself is Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 3 (Taroon 
Update 2) with all the latest patches and updates installed.

I think I am probably just missing a package or two.

Has anyone done this with any success?
