PAE, not SMP.
Gah, my mistake, sorry.
He should be able to replace the kernel via rpm -e and rpm -i That said, I doubt he'll actually see a benefit. PAE is slow. If you want to see a real performance-gain, install 5.2 x86-64.
If this server is not mission-critical and therefore you wouldn't mind the downtime I'd recommend this too. Of course it could be harder if the server is Colo'd but for >4GB RAM x86-64 is the best way to go.
HTH, Mike
