I have just downloaded a kernel from ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mantel/next/RPM/ If this were a normal package I would use rpm to install it with no hesitation. Being the kernel, I want to make sure I don't kill my machine. What are the recommended steps for installing the above, and for booting from the current kernel if I have problems.
