I think Mark means that Red Hat patch the kernel in special ways that you do
not understand, and if you use a vanilla kernel it will cause you to have an
unbootable system.
If you desperately want to use a vanilla kernel, it is a good idea to look up
how to use your bootloader (be it LILO or GRUB) to boot the already installed
kernel and your custom compiled kernel so you have a fail back option in case
of failure.
Be warned though, doing this may leave you without a workable system.
