Word of warning, I attempted an update to 6.5 on an OpenVZ container running on the 2.6.18 kernel (I believe that means the host node is using RHEL5) and the network ceased functioning.  I did a reinstall and the network resumed working until I attempted another 6.5 upgrade.  That may just be me or my host, but be warned.  I did the same update on a container running the 2.6.32 kernel and everything worked fine.

For the end users, how do you determine what kernel the host is running?

Run uname -r. It's also easy to know if you've got 2.6.32 if you have vSwap or memory allocations that aren't fucky.
