I'm running Linux kernel 2.6.18-8.el5 on an RHEL 5 distribution.
I downloaded the 2.6.23.1 kernel from kernel.org.
Does anyone have a good and accurate step by step process on how to
upgrade the kernel?
Will I need to upgrade anything else besides the kernel itself?
There's a good chance that you'll at least have to update glibc. Go to the page the kernel d/l is on, and check if it gives you that info. Alternatives, try to install (I always use ivh, so it installs in parallel to the old kernel, so that you can always choose that as a fallback). If it fails, it'll tell you what it needs.
