[kwlug-disc] One distro, another kernel?

[Richard Weait]

How wrong is this?

Could one, for example, run Ubuntu on a Centos kernel?

If one installed Ubuntu with an Ubuntu kernel, then decided to test
operating Ubuntu from a Centos kernel, how would one install it.  What
would one expect to break?  If it worked, how would one expect to
maintain it?

This is not entirely theoretical.  Your guidance is appreciated.
