Re: F29 Upgrade Still Boots F27 Kernel - Recommendations Please

A guess is that the /boot that is booting the machine is not the same
/boot is the current booted OS has mounted at /boot.

So all updates are being put on a /boot that is not being used to boot
the machine, and you need to find the actual /boot that is booting the
machine and then do a dnf reinstall <latestkernel>.   It may also mean
that the grub setup on /boot is different between the 2 boots.
