The procedure for updating kernels with RPM is going to be the same
regardless of whether you're using an official or unofficial kernel
RPM.  The instructions are at:

    http://www.redhat.com/support/docs/rhl/intel/kernel-upgrade-intel.html

Basically, you use "rpm -ivh" rather than "rpm -Uvh" to install the
new RPMS.  This will keep *both* kernel installations on the system,
allowing you to test the new one.  READ THE INSTRUCTIONS!!!
