Dr Tru has released some RPMs on the list previously, and I tested it once
and it works quite well. Here's what's posted:
 
all the files are here:

ftp://ftp.pasteur.fr/pub/BIS/tru/2.6_CentOS-3/yum

</blurb>
<howto>

1) wget ftp://ftp.pasteur.fr/pub/BIS/tru/2.6_CentOS-3/yum.conf.mini

use sudo or become root

2) yum -c yum.conf.mini -y update

3) yum -c yum.conf.mini -y install initscripts_26
either install you own linux-2.6.x kernel or

4a) yum -c yum.conf.mini -y install linux linux-doc
4b) yum -c yum.conf.mini -y install linux-smp
4c) yum -c yum.conf.mini -y install linux-source

reboot

- linux src.rpm is a steal for the cAos-2 + update to 2.6.10-ac8
