Is there anything inherently wrong about downloading the Rawhide distribution of 
kernel 2.2.14-1.1.0 and using it to upgrade my Red Hat 2.2.12-42 kernel?

I actually did this.  At the conclusion of the GNORPM install (upgrade), several 
messages appeared complaining that certain files were missing.

When next booted, SILO failed.  I had to 'upgrade' the kernel from my Red Hat 6.0 
(kernel 2.2.5-15) kernel and reinstall the boot loader.  Once done, /etc/silo.conf was 
modified to recognize the new 2.2.14-1.1.0 kernel.

At least the system now boots to this newest kernel.  But I'm afraid that I've mixed a 
cat into a dog's world.  Should I revert back to 2.2.12-42 and wait for a Red Hat 
distribution of 2.2.14?
