[CentOS] Is it possible to install Fedora 8 kernel with CentOS 5.1 installation?
Hi I've experienced crashes with all CentOS 5 kernel. I tried Fedora 8 and it runs fine.. So is there an easy way to install and run the Fedora 8 kernel on my CentOS 5.1 machine ? Thanks Jean-Yves

I managed to build a vanilla 2.6.23.12 using the .config from the F8 kernel as a template. It seems to work. I needed a newer saa7134 driver.
