The mirror that you are pointed to is not updated. Are you pointing to your own mirror or the default ones. This is normally caused when someone has the 5.0 BASE repo and the 5.1 updates repo. That _WILL_NOT_WORK_ .... as both base and updates are different for 5.0 and 5.1. You have to point to /5.1/os/ AND /5.1/updates/ ... can not point to /5.0/os and /5.1/updates/ (5.1 as a whole is a tree ... it can not be mixed and matched with 5.0.) If that is NOT the problem (ie, you are using mirrors from our "mirrorlist=" list or mirror.centos.org as your "baseurl=" in CentOS-Base.repo) then do: yum clean all yum -d3 upgrade kernel That should give you some more detail about the error.
