Not intended to help ;-)

Point yum at the fc2 devel by adding to /etc/yum.conf:
    [rawhide]
    name=Fedora Core $releasever - $basearch - Unreleased Updates
    baseurl=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/i386

Then type
    yum upgrade kernel

Try rebooting. If you succeed, well, there you have it. Otherwise bailto
the 2.4.22 kernel.

But do all the above "Very carefully." please.
