The easiest way would be to skip all the rpm stuff and just build/install a
kernel by hand.
quick howto:

as root:
$ yum install git

then as user:
$ git clone git://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git
$ cd linux-2.6
(Save the patch in comment 5 as 'gpe.patch' in this dir)
$ cat gpe.patch | patch -p1

$ wget http://www.codemonkey.org.uk/junk/kernel-2.6.25-i686.config
(this is a config from rawhide that I just generated)
$ mv kernel-2.6.25-i686.config .config
$ make oldconfig
$ make bzImage
$ make modules
$ su -
(become root)
$ make modules_install
$ make install

And now you should see a new option in grub when you reboot.

I think that should be all you need.
