Hi all,

Is it possible to use the fc15 kernel on fc14, and if so, how would
you go about doing that?

I could of course just download the SRPM and recompile it, but I'd
like to be able to easily update the system as well. I don't doubt
other RPMs will be required, but I can't upgrade this system just yet,
but still want to benefit from the much later kernel.

Are there too many dependency changes, such as module-init-tools,
grub, initscripts, etc, that woud normally be tied to the kernel
version to upgrade to the new one?

Thanks,
Alex
