Hi, I'm a slacker for not responding.

The list of things you need to do to upgrade from 7.3 to 9 from the
thread in may are still accurate. I don't think I moved the loading of
the python modules for handling the kernel stuff around enough for it to
not traceback.

but the only thing you'll have to do is add it to the grub.conf or the
lilo.conf - the kernel packages are all installed and happy its just
needing to be set to be the boot kernel.
