I brought this up yesterday, perhaps in the wrong thread. I have the 1826 and 1878 kernels. Yesterday, I had the 1872 and 1826. When the 1872 was installed, it never was offered as an option at startup. If I'd tap the keyboard to get the list, 1872 was not there. After boot-up, I see the kernel in /boot and it is listed in menu.lst and grub.conf. Samething again this am - my machine is updated to 1878. I see messages about 1872 being removed. 1878 is now in /boot and is listed in menu.lst and grub.conf. BUT, on startup, it is not in the list - only 1826 is offered...

Anyone know what's up?

Interesting thread. Long shot....but, does ls /boot show a directory link of boot back to itself? It should. Or do you have a "real" /boot/boot directory, with grub pointing to one and yum updating in the other? Could you post fdisk -l /dev/hda (or wherever your boot partition is), ls -l /boot and your grub.conf file.
