The problem is now isolated: the kernel was not installed by 'rpm -i

Hum, that's a pretty tricky situation!
I think what I would try first, if I had the right kernel RPMs kicking
around, would be to use rpm's --root. So from your FC4 system
rpm -i --root /mnt/fc6 /path/to/kernel*.rpm
In theory this should do the deed as if /mnt/fc6 was at /, at least, it
should use the rpm database in /mnt/fc6/var/lib/rpm and does a chroot
before running any scriptlets.
Anyway I would try it first, not least to find out if it really can do
the deed.
