But anything /less/ than that puts you at some non-starter risk. Agreed, though I run the risk and often just keep two. Well, I'll remove the third after the newest seems to work well, after a few days. The more you have, the longer updates take, too. There's more files to consider. My system's not too nippy (500 MHz Celeron), and I can notice it's slower to do a "rpm -Uvh something.rpm" when I have three or more kernels. -- (Currently running FC4, occasionally trying FC5.)
