This exact problem has been addressed here,
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2006-January/msg01530.html
and another long thread here,
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2005-October/msg03542.html
and, as it suggested, I just removed those packages - which I don't
think I need,
# yum remove dlm-kernel cman-kernel GFS-kernel gnbd-kernel
However, the upgrade didn't seem to finish because I still have a
2.6.11-1.1369_FC4 kernel, and I thought it was upgrading me to
0:2.6.14-1.1653_FC4, but stopped when these errors showed up. If I try
'yum upgrade' again after removing those, it eventually gets to these
same errors. (I also tried 'yum clean all' after the 'yum remove').
Do I need more than 'yum remove' to have it completely ignore these
packages next time I try to upgrade?
It looks like your "yum remove" didn't work. Which kernel packages are
actually still installed?
$ rpm -qa '*kernel*'
