[plug] kernel upgrade using rpm?

[Craig Dyke]

Hi all

I am not sure as to the best method to use for upgrading my kernel.
I am currently running 2.4.0 and would like to get the latest so as to
perhaps aid me with some other problems I am having. In the past
I would get the binaries and compile them myself.

My quetsion is should I stick with this method or perhaps use rpm
packages?

If so, are there any inherent problems faced when using the rpm way?
