Since when does yum remove old kernels
automatically? Seems a bit
dangerous to me. What if there's a problem and one
needs a fallback?
From previous advice on the fedora-test-list, they
told me to do the following
disable the installonlyn plugin
edit /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/installonlyn.conf
enabled=0
and also read for more help/advice

OK. I understand now. installonly.conf has tokeep=2. I already have
the 2054 and 2069 builds so adding the 2080 build means that the 2054
build can go. I think I will probably leave things as is.
Thanks,
Dan.
