I modified the above a little to suit:

# /sbin/new-kernel-pkg --package kernel --mkinitrd --dracut --depmod 
--update 2.6.35.9-64.fc14.i686
W: Cannot load dracut module "plymouth", dependencies failed.
#

Still no plymouth on reboot :\

The strange part is that this was a plain minimal install direct from 
the F14 DVD, then the only things done was "yum -y update"
