It is kernel-4.4.26-201.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm, and it lives here: http://mirror.centos.org/altarch/7/experimental/x86_64/ I don't recommend using this in production without lots of testing first, and it requires a new linux-firmware, xfsprogs, supermin5. It also does not support secure boot. I am using it on several (currently 6) machines and we created it for newer IoT type boards and compute sticks, etc. I have it running on 3 laptops and 3 KVM servers without any issues .. but that is a very small subset of tested configurations. Thanks, Johnny Hughes
