[opensuse] Kernel updates for new kernels



Hello!

I read a lot about kernel updates in this list, but I still have the
following (understanding?) problem:

When I install a new kernel from on of the repositories

http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/Vanilla/openSUSE_10.3/
or
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/HEAD/openSUSE_Factory/i586/

I get the "most current" Version of the kernel. When I now want to stick
to a specific version, lets say 2.6.23 or 2.6.24 (when finished), where
will I get the security updates for the version? The repositories will
change to the newer branch again, won't they?

Also, where do I get the 2.6.23 build now, when there are already the
2.6.24-rc builds in the repositories?

Thanks,

Oliver.
