Is the Linux kernel all which your software depends on? Does it depend on the kernel at all? What about system libraries, such as glibc, or other libraries? Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 is close to Red Hat Linux 8.0 and 9. Fedora Core 1 contains more recent software, including a newer kernel (2.4.22 plus many fixes/patches from ac and pre kernels as well as backported features from 2.6). --
