Not the same thing. The Linux kernel is the central component of all Linux
operating systems and distributions, and the latest stable version is
currently 2.6. Red Hat Linux 9, Fedora Core 1, and others are different
distributions which package the Linux kernel and *thousands* of other
packages in order to create a fully-functional operating system. RHL-9 used
the 2.4-series kernel, but you can put a 2.6 kernel into RHL-9 and it
makes no real difference.
