Hi  fuzzie1300,

I would probably find a good place in the shutdown process, test for
the use of the onetime kernel and then have it swap out
/boot/grub/grub.conf with one pointing to the new kernel.  Since it
looks for the use of the old kernel it would never execute again, as
if that mattered.

Good Hunting!
