Sorry, I wasn't being clear - I interpreted "kernel version" as
including specifying what distro patches were included. e.g. Redhat
EL's 2.4.9, or Debian's 2.4.26, kernel.org's 2.6.8rc2 etc. since you can
- for example - run the redhat kernel, with Debian's userland e.g.
http://packages.debian.org/testing/devel/kernel-patch-redhat if you need
to use some Redhat-only binary driver, or kernel feature).
