I just did a couple more upgrades, these at my house and on every

In each case (3 in fact) grub.conf was left with the

manually edit it.
Why was the FC6 kernel no longer available?
No, it was not.
Was it because you deleted it?
No, because the upgrade deleted it, it was there before the upgrade.
If so, I would say the error was on your part, not Fedora's.
Good point, except for the fact that it's totally wrong. Do you
honestly think I'd bitch and moan if it was something I did? I've
upgraded a dozen machines to F7 now and in 9 of the 12 or 13, grub has
failed to update properly. Oh, it setup the F7 kernel entry, but didn't
set it as the default boot kernel. That is a bug. Plain and simple.
Now /why/ it's a problem on some and not on others, I do not know. If I
did I'd be posting the answer.
