If you look at the distro list at http://www.linux.org you can see a number of potential candidates (Power User distros). >From a first glance a few seem possible to me: Slackware, CERN linux, CentOS (RHEL-based), Scientific Linux (RHEL-based), 64 Studio, amongst others. Which of them has a stock rt kernel is a good question (which general/regular distros have an easily accessible rt kernel?). Good luck.
