Hmm yes, well I tried it both ways.
First update everything except the kernel to FC4 then install the 2.6.17
kernel or first install the new kernel then try to boot the system with the
that kernel. Both ways didn't boot.
Well the server now hangs again and I'm about to call my provider and see
what they can tell me.

I remember seeing this on Fedora Core 4 when I tried to upgrade to
Rawhide at the time (before FC5 was out). It has to do with kudzu or
something conflicting with the old 2.6.12 kernel. It turns out I had to
get the latest kernel, reboot using it and remove the old kernel (rpm -e
kernel-2.6.12-foo) before I could continue the update.
