No the old 2.4 stuff is removed. Perhaps a good thing as there are some glibc and other library differences. to pay attention to.

A more patient man than me could boot in rescue mode and then use rpm to place each package on the old system in special ways. Might also confuse things but could be done. -- T o m M i t c h e l l /dev/null the ultimate in secure storage.
