Anyone having trouble with the kernel from http://people.redhat.com/~arjanv/2.6/ ??
I just installed it with:
#rpm -ivh kernel.rpm
and when I re-booted it got as far as trying to start init and then died.
I have a feeling that there is something else I need to download from that repository.
Anything else I should install/upgrade??

I had this problem when I incorrectly compiled a kernel recently, Try compiling your own kernel and see if you still get the same problem

yeah it may be me, but i don't trust rpm kernels(save the updates from yum) i get my 2.5.x kernels from source and do it the "hard" way

I'm not sure where the problem lies. But some of the guys here adviced to add vdso=0 during booting and it helped. I will try to find the post.
