Thanks, this looks good. I have only a few minor comments:

Should we change the RHEL 5.6 references to RHEL 5? RHEL 5.7 is
currently in beta, and there will probably be future RHEL 5 minor
releases. I guess we might want to say that this might not work on RHEL
5.5 and earlier.

Can we make this more similar to the rpmbuild command typically used to
build Red Hat kmod packages? The required -D arguments seem unorthodox
to me. There's an example kmod spec file and rpmbuild commands here:

Did you mean --force-corefiles?

Is something else deleting /var/run/openvswitch.booted on system
shutdown or OVS stop, or is this only supposed to run the first time OVS
is started?

Doesn't ovs-ctl require force-reload-kmod?
