Where can I find all the Fedora, Red Hat, or Ubuntu (LSB Linux) release iso's with Linux kernel 2.4.x ?.

Just out of curiosity: Why do you need the 2.4-Kernel? – Bobby Jun 4 '10 at 7:37
In order to get usable answers, you should be more specific. Does it really have to be Fedora, RedHat or Ubuntu? Why? Would you consider other distros? And why does it have to be kernel 2.4? Is it because of size, or because you want to run it on older hardware? Are you looking for older (unsupported) distro images like RedHat 9? If you add this info, it will be easier to target your needs. – Martin Bøgelund Jun 4 '10 at 7:38
Well actually right now I am developing openss7 that have certain kernel specification. in the manual openss7 can be used at kernel linux 2.4.10-2.4.27 and 2.6.3-2.6.26.. I have tried with kernel 2.6.18 but I got stuck at some code, and it makes my pc crash. So right now i try to build it under 2.4 kernel. So it does not have to be Fedora RH or ubuntu but it have to be LSB linux (slackware is not included). – deddihp Jun 4 '10 at 8:09

Fedora only comes with 2.6.xx kernel due to compatibility. You can't really replace it.

For 2.4.xx, use the CentOS 3.xx version (its the same as RedHat Enterprise Linux.). If you want RHEL, then go to the official homepage and purchase the 3.xx version (Maybe you can download it already since its not supported anymore.). The only difference between CentOS/ScientificLinux and RHEL is the support.

thanks for your reply, i'll try to see it – deddihp Jun 4 '10 at 7:26
no problem, this is the only enterprise linux which comes with 2.4 kernel. However, there are 2.4 based linux distros around also. | Okay fixed something. CentOS 3.xx / RHEL3.xx comes with 2.4. 4.xx versions comes with 2.6 already. – Shiki Jun 4 '10 at 7:35

Fedora Core 1 shipped with kernel 2.4.x and you can download the same from Fedora archives.

i386 or
x86_64

Note: The Fedora releases here are no longer supported or maintained, so they do not receive bug fixes or security updates. We do not recommend using these releases any more

I mean fedora with kernel 2.4.x inside. The other LSB linux would be no problem. do you know, where can i download it ?. – deddihp Jun 4 '10 at 7:17

As this you require quite an old version (that will probably not be too happy with newer things), have you considered running this in a virtual box? This would allow to to use a more up to date version as your main OS, and just jump back to this when needed.
