Hello
You may know that IBM's testcase on and off has some interesting
files.
Some are for specified purposes with or without PWD wherelse
others are quite public ;-)
Important is: They are there temporarily only ...
... for the, just here discussed, kernel it's too late already
again ;-(

You use it on your own risk !

Another hint:
There are 3 types of kernels and 2 version of each:

a) SMP
b) UNI
c) W4

and each of these 3 types has either a normal or, with a "d" a
debugger version !
You need to know exactly which one you need !!!

> 2-I am running Warp 4 FP 15. Should I want this kernel?
I was using this kernel with FP15 and now again with my FP16 !
Applying FP15 per RSU downgraded my most accurate kernel back to
somewhat lower
but due my dealing with PM on a 76GB HDD I had lost this specific
file to re-apply the
14.089e_W again.

The ReadMe may inform you why you should want this kernel !
Till now I never had any troubles with any of these newer kernels
;-)

> 3-What bad thing may happen/how to test install with reversion
ability?

You can apply file for file to make sure that you may be able to
reverse the action !
I did it with applying the few first kernels ...
... then gave up because I didn't need it ;-) I know: My own risk
!!

Have a nice day !
