My personal opinion is that patching a RedHat patched kernel with
non-redhat patches is just plain bad practice, and I have never been too
sucessful...

I woulg go out to kernel.org and get the latest 2.4.xx kernel, apply the
bonding patches to that source, and go from there....

You might want to take a look at the RedHat patches to the kernel
source, and see what patches they applied....
there might just be something there you want or need ;)

  My opinion only, and not to be taken without some research...
