there is no i386 kernel in CentOS3/4/5
Sorry my typo mistake I would be going from i586 to i686.

Is that possible with

"yum install kernel2.6.9-78.EL.i686"


Jerry
You might need to take a look at /etc/sysconfig/kernel to see what is set as the default kernel. Using yum install and trying to boot from the kernel should let you see if it works. There are other rpms in the 586 setup that might need to be replaced. I think gcc is one of them. YMMV
