I have RHEL-4 installed on one of my hardisk. RHEL-4 is using kernel 2.6.9-5. Now I want to update it. I went to www.kernel.org. I got confused about what to download and what not to download. Please specify the exact link from where I can download the kernel comletely

This is the latest stable plain vanilla kernel availbable *www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/patch-2.6.16.16.bz2
You will need to compile it to work to your needs.
If you want latest kernel available for RHEL, then search on RHN.
