kernels are generally stand alone and don't depend on other packages, so 
you can probably just download and install the f15 kernel directly (though 
if you are using RPM, make sure you use rpm -i and not -U or -F ie. 
install rather than update or freshen which will both remove the existing 
kernels). You might possibly have problems with things like X if the 
drivers depend too closely on the kernel version, so it is always worth 
making sure you can resort to a known good kernel if necessary, but I 
expect it will just work.
