Maybe ... Usually, the kernel version for the driver needs to match the
kernel it is built for.  So, you would use CentOS-3 or CentOS-2.1 and get
the ISO that you need, based on the driver.

We did not release a CentOS-3.0 ... so there is not a CD for that.

What update # is the RHEL driver for (ie, RHEL-4 Update 2, etc.)

You can find old CDs and trees here:
