About the only time you should stay with a 2.4.x kernel is when you have
orphaned hardware that isn't supported in 2.6.  Most older generic hardware is
supported, but some custom hardware interfaces or older RAID cards may use
drivers that haven't been ported to 2.6.x.

You can't get meaningful advice if you don't give any details about your
requirements.

What are you looking for?  Security updates? Specific applications?
For a stable server, CentOS might be a better choice.
