/boot/grub2/grub.cfg and by whatever error not as default
there is a line like set default="0" which can be modified or
simply after select the newest kernel at boot a
"yum reinstall kernel" after make sure the newest one works
will remove any other kernel and with the next update all
should be fine again, or simply use grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cf
to re-generate the grub-config, at the begin without the -o param
to take a look what would happen
but you can for sure select the kernel at boot
thanks to people who still thinks it is a good idea
to hide the alternate kernels in the grub menu as default
and force users to take action by pressing keys at the
grub-stage of boot
hence to not use linux alpha-releases if you are not firm
with these things!

I am now on 3.8 after # yum update kernel* earlier today..
