I have some more newbie questions for y'all....

I'm running 2.0.35 right now, and I need to up it.  However, this is 
something I have never done before.  How did you go about it?  Could 
someone explain the process to me?  I heard that there is an rpm to do 
this, but that seems too simple to me.  I could use a little more 
explanation.
Is this the same, or similar, to recompiling the kernel?


Thanks,
