Build your own kernel. It's not very hard to do.
Go to kernel.org
download a kernel tar.bz2
bunzip2
tar xf
cd 2.*
read the README (or INSTALL I forget file's name)
make mrproper
make xconfig
(before you start it's nice to have a hardware list that you can
refer to)
make bzImage
when it's done it will tell you where the bzImage is
cp bzImage to /boot/linux.2.6.mynew.1
emacs /boot/grub/grub.conf
extra steps if you don't use initrd
you might have to change some things regarding udev
google.com->inurl:redhat.com udev
Good luck
