I already sent another message replying to this, but let me clarify
something else since you mentioned the kernel in this case. VA Linux
bundles a regular Red Hat distribution that is customized to run on their
hardware in order to improve performance, compatibility, etc. Among other
things, they do bundle a customized kernel, but that is no different than
what Red Hat and other distributions do themselves. They also bundle a
customized compile of the Linux kernel... which is not the same as to say
proprietary, of course.
