Normally I usually have two kernels installed.

However;
$ rpm -q kernel
kernel-2.6.25-14.fc9.x86_64
kernel-2.6.25.14-108.fc9.x86_64
kernel-2.6.26.3-29.fc9.x86_64

Yes, I know.  I only mentioned the lack of removal of the third kernel
because it might be indicative of an incomplete or improper install.

yum-complete-transaction says everything was completely installed
however.

I was thinking of booting into kernel-2.6.25.14-108.fc9.x86_64; removing
kernel-2.6.26.3-29.fc9.x86_64 and re-installing that kernel unless
someone has a better solution or can tell me why I am getting the
"driver referenced before assignment" warning at boot.
