I, and someone else have already replied to your problem, but as your multip;e posts have just come in 5hrs late, some sort of delay is going on. Anyway. To fix the problem go to /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/installonlyn.conf Change "enabled=1" to "enabled=0" Now all new kernels will be saved, and available from Grub's menu. I've sent this to you as well as the list, in case your having problems receiving posts to the list. Nigel.
You may also want to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and put a "#" in front of hiddenmenu so you can choose which of the installed kernel(s) to boot.
