Sorry, let me clarify my response - you need a 'vanilla' kernel from kernel.org, but you can run RH9 apps, use rpm, etc. I guess I think of my root servers as still being RH9, even though they're running 2.4.24-vs1.26. Everything is RedHat except the kernel. :)
So install RH9 normally, then manually compile and install a new kernel from kernel.org with the vs patches.
