I'd put Arjan's entry into /etc/yum.conf and do a "yum upgrade" to get everything up to date (after a complete backup of anything you care about of course ;^). [2.6testkernels] name=Test Linux 2.6-test prerelease kernels for RHL9/rawhide baseurl=http://people.redhat.com/arjanv/2.6/ Begs the question, if you want to go this bleeding-edge why not install FC2 or rawhide?
