I have not tried this on Centos 4 but on the -3 series, the kernel would
boot fine, but I couldn't get XFree to run. I did not research it very
far, but I'm guessing it had to do with the patches. Do you have the
option of attempting to apply the patch(es) you need to the Centos 4
kernel to see if it will apply?
