What's the best way to roll back to a previous kernel? The current 2.6.20-1.2944.fc6 is causing one of my servers to lock up once every 24 hours, something that did not happen with the previous kernel (2933). If I simply try to install 2933 right now, it tells me there are two files that conflict with the current installation of 2944:

file /usr/include/linux/eventpoll.h from install of kernel-headers-2.6.20-1.2933.fc6 conflicts with file from package kernel-headers-2.6.20-1.2944.fc6 file /usr/include/linux/if_packet.h from install of kernel-headers-2.6.20-1.2933.fc6 conflicts with file from package kernel-headers-2.6.20-1.2944.fc6

Can I ignore those errors and force the installation, fix grub.conf and reboot (then remove 2944) ?

Normally your previous kernel is kept when yum installs a new one in an update. You should be able to select it from the grub boot menu or edit grub.conf to make it the default unless you removed it yourself after installing the new one.
