I just tried to update to the newest 2.6.22.4 and, this being the third
new kernel installed after installing Fedora 7, it wanted to remove the
first one, too. installonlyn is not installed. "man yum.conf" says that
the default of installonly_limit should be 0 (to disable the feature).
This does not seem to be correct. Explicitly setting installonly_limit=0
in my yum.conf fixed the problem and it no longer wants to remove older
kernels.
