I've found that almost any distro Kernel RPM will install (I've
installed a FC1 kernel RPM under WBL 3.0).  It should be possible to
grab a Fedora Core 4 or 5 kernel and install it.  Or you can get the
CentOS 4.x kernel RPMs -- although 2.6.9-34<mumble> is the current
version.  Is there some *specific* reason you specifically need 2.6.9-22?
 If you just need a newer one than 2.6.9-5, one that is at least as new
as 2.6.9-22, then one of the 2.6.9-34<mumble> kernels available at
http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/4/updates/i386/RPMS/ should work.
