Thanks for the info, now for the next question, I am running RedHat 5.1 (2.0.34-0.6) that I would also like to upgrade. I have spent some time familiarizing myself with kernel compiling and would now like to upgrade. I would assume that 2.0.35 is the stable version so I should start there but I would also like to put together a Linux 2.1.125 machine for development. To do this do I need to download the 2.1.125 patch and the patch the 2.0.34 code or is the something else that needs to be done?

First you need to know how to recompile a kernel. Check the howto or ask me..
Secondly, you need to edit the Makefile in /usr/src/linux.
Uncomment the line that says SMP=1
Recompile.
Tada..
If all else fails.. Tell me what kernel you want and a system config and I'll compile it for you.
