I actually just nixed CentOS on my laptop for kubuntu and don't upgrade server kernels too often, so I'm not sure what the most recent version is out there, but if it's a server you're doing, up2date or a yum install for the new kernel should work, shouldn't it? (basically, i'm just bumping your thread for you).

Thanks for the bump. I tried although it doesn't seem correct. From the website:
The best way to move from CentOS-4 to CentOS-5 is via an installer
upgrade. However if you must do it online, here are some tips to help:
- Remove as many packages as you can, strip it right back to the
original OS if possible
- Backup everything
- Disable all repositories, except the centos-5 OS and Updates repos
- init 3
- shutdown as many services as possible
- download and install the centos-release-5.x rpm, which will update
your yum configs
- run a yum upgade ( not update )
And I'm trying to do that.
