SolutionFrom the version format described by you, it looks to be RedHat system. You can download the errata kernel packages from RedHat website if you subscription (or evaluation login).
After downloading the kernel, install it using rpm -ivh
But i believe this process might have problem when you want erase one of the kernel because both package will share the same name and rpm will get confused on which one to erase.
Hope this helps,
Gopi

Re: Upgrading to a new Kernel
When you got Red Hat Linux,the kernel can also be updated by up2date. It will install the newest kernel next to the old kernel and both kernels will be displayed at the grub boot loader, in case something gets wrong.

Re: Upgrading to a new Kernel
Besides using "up2date", where can I go to download the latest Kernel? I am histate to do the "up2date" because you have to open the firewall to do this, well according to our site. I really need a good site to download the newest version of kernel.
Many thanks!!

Re: Upgrading to a new Kernel
You should be able to download it directly from redhat.com website. I believe you can also use rpmfind.net to retrieve latest kernel.
Hope this helps,

Re: Upgrading to a new Kernel
We had the same issue originally with our firewall and website. However if you modify /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date
Modify the following this way you wont use SSL and your downloads will just be via HTTP.
serverURL=http://xmlrpc.rhn.redhat.com/XMLRPC
enableProxy=1
enableProxyAuth=1
proxyPassword=abc
proxyUser=redhatnetwork
Get an account created (We have Windoze as our proxy server) and set the proxyUser/proxyPassword to that account, then Up2date should access the Redhat Network and download the required files (assuming you have subscription) - otherwise its a hardslog via the single package download option under Redhat Network.
