There are no compilations. There's Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 (also
known as RHEL 4) and RHEL 4 Update 1. Your subscription to Enterprise
Linux grants you the right to run any version you like. You can run
RHEL 2.1, RHEL 3, or RHEL 4. When RHEL 5 comes out, you automatically
have the right to upgrade to it as long as your subscription is active.
RHEL 3 did Update 4 and Update 5 with U5 being the current. Again, you
can run any version you need with a single subscription.
Once you activate your subscription, you can download the ISOs for any
version from Red Hat Network. If you decide to get the original RHEL 4
ISOs, you can upgrade to Update 1 simply by running up2date.
