I don't think anybody gave an example of procedure to update...

1. Turn off auto updates to dnf.
2. Daily update: sudo dnf upgrade
2a. If there is not kernel update hit "Yes" and stop here.
2b. If there is a kernel update hit "No"
3. Delete the "rescue" stuff in /boot and /boot/loader/entries/
4. sudo dnf upgrade -y
5. Reenable auto updates if you wish.

This will make sure you get your rescue built right away without having to push the build yourself. This just lets the system do it for you. You could just do the deletes and then wait, but it might be days before a new kernel comes in to push the rebuild.
