With the high degree of unlikelyhood that I would willingly go to court against SCO on my own (assuming the old divide and conquer MO), and the fact that I would be resistant to the idea of paying SCO anything, I just glanced over my shelf and found that in Red Hat releases, according to the boxes, version 7.0 contained kernel version 2.2.16, and version 7.1 contained kernel version 2.4.
<begin speculation>
If the "offending" kernel versions are >= 2.4 then (at least in RH) one would have to drop back to at <= RH 7.0, which was a sucky release IMHO. IMHO (again) that would mean RH 6.2, which while not great could be OK.
<end speculation>
That said, if anyone were to come up with a viable plan to soundly trounce SCO (which IMHO would be a slap in the face to MS as well - re: their "support" of SCO) I could be very interested in hearing about it.
