Is it possible to build and run 2.6 on 2.4? What environment is
required? What are the limitations if any?
The answer depends. As you said, you were trying to run 2.6 on 2.4.18. I
think that kernel is too old to run 2.4 uml kernel. So, it can't run 2.6
kernel.
I tried to run old 2.4 uml kernel on
I thought about it but the idea of running cpu-intensive tasks designed
for recent processors inside qemu on P3 class CPU is quite frightening.
And network configuration might be tricky too.

If only I could update the kernel...
Maybe there is some workaround to make it work?

Hi,
I need to run some recent software on a legacy server running 2.4.18
kernel. Sadly it is not possible to rebuild the sotware to run natively
with that kernel (our code requires boost, boost requires gcc 4.5+,
gcc4.5+ doesn't like old glibc and recent glibc doesnt build for 2.4
kernel).
So
