Tux on RHEL 4.1 AS

I'm trying to install Tux on RHEL 4.1 AS with a kernel of 2.6.9. I'm
very new here and was hoping to get some help in going about this.
I've looked over the QuickStart-TUX.txt file from here:
http://people.redhat.com/mingo/TUX-patches/ but noticed that it is
rather outdated. It appears there are newer patches available than the
ones mentioned in the QuickStart-TUX.txt file. I guess my first
question is regarding applying the TUX patch to a vanilla kernel. It
says to apply it to a 2.4.16 kernel while I'm running the 2.6.9
kernel. Would I be correct in assuming I need to use either the
tux3-2.6.9-rc2-A5 or tux3-2.6.9-rc3-A6 patch? If so, does it matter
which one to use here? Can I use an even later patch, such as
tux3-2.6.12-rc1-A4? The next question is regarding the userspace
utilities. I'm assuming I want to use the tux-3.2.21.tar.gz to
correspond with the appropriate tux3 patch, yes? Any help provided
would be very much appreciated and would be a sanity check for me
before proceeding.

Thank you,
Jeff Blakeley
