My advice.. keep lots of prior kernels, I've currently got

I was wondering about this:
installonly_limit=8
installonlypkgs=kernel*
I then did a
yum install kernel
and there was only one left.
Sorry I for the delay. What I have setup is this:
I've got one rpm doesn't know about now. And, I've begun
yumdownloader kernel
rpm -<whatever got downloaed>
and then the regular updates.
/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/versionlock.conf

locklist = /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/versionlock.list

You need to have fixed yum-versionlock which is broken, see bz:

They joys of alfaware:-)
By default the kernel is included in installonlypkgs, so you don't
really need to set that (and there may be others included in default
you're not now including).
The newer kernels are installing fine for me from 2.6.24.1-28 (which is
why I still have it).
You might add a note to my bug then, I've not run any .24 kernels and I
don't have any.
The f9a 2.6.21 xen kernel has the problem too. It's masked by xen
rebooting in five seconds so one doesn't see what happened. There's a bz
for that too.
