And, go back to 4.08? That was the version used on RH5.2.

Does that run on RH6.2? It was previously run on RH 5.2, which had the
2.0.35 kernel (I think), whereas RH 6.2 has the 2.2.something kernel (I
think), and, I thought that programs that ran on the former, would not
run on the latter, due to library changes.
