Dear Smith,
Thank you for your information!
I tried to migrate RHES 4.0 to CentOS 4.2 and successfully finished it.
It saved much time and gave me many conviences because I didn't have
to reinstall the Linux.
The main issue was a device driver, but it is included in CentOS 4.2.
So after rebooting with CentOS kernel, my X4100 runs perfectly.
Thank you for your help!

There's a howto for switching from Whitebox, I'd imagine that ES to CentOS
would be similar:

I took the above FAQ and made a working script you're free to play with:

Good luck.
