Well, there is no real order necessary.  Except it might be a good idea to
do the kernel, then kernel-headers first so that the /usr/src/linux link
is properly pointing to the sgi kernel.  And the only reboot should be
when you are done installing everything and want to boot our kernel
(remember to keep your old kernel around just in case -- meaning don't to
a rpm -U on the kernel, instead do a rpm -i).  Hope this helps.
