Hmm yes, well I tried it both ways.
First update everything except the kernel to FC4 then install the 2.6.17 
kernel or first install the new kernel then try to boot the system with the 
that kernel. Both ways didn't boot.
Well the server now hangs again and I'm about to call my provider and see 
what they can tell me.
