If you have /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.8.1.el5, you *should* also have
/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-194.8.1.el5 and /boot/initrd-2.6.18-194.8.1.el5.img
installed as well:

sauron.deepsoft.com% rpm -qf /lib/modules/2.6.18-194.8.1.el5
kernel-2.6.18-194.8.1.el5
sauron.deepsoft.com% rpm -ql kernel-2.6.18-194.8.1.el5 | grep boot
/boot/.vmlinuz-2.6.18-194.8.1.el5.hmac
/boot/System.map-2.6.18-194.8.1.el5
/boot/config-2.6.18-194.8.1.el5
/boot/initrd-2.6.18-194.8.1.el5.img
/boot/symvers-2.6.18-194.8.1.el5.gz
/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-194.8.1.el5
/lib/modules/2.6.18-194.8.1.el5/kernel/drivers/mtd/redboot.ko

It looks like somehow your /boot/grub/grub.conf file is not getting updated.

Is grubby / mkinitrd installed?  (You didn't do something like uninstall
mkinitrd? or delete /sbin/grubby?)

sauron.deepsoft.com% rpm -qf /sbin/grubby
mkinitrd-5.1.19.6-61.el5_5.2
