yum and up2date do the same thing. They install rpms. updating your rpms using up2date should have the same outcome as updating using yum. We use yum for all of our updates and have no problems. I suspect Mike is correct and you'll need to reboot to pick up the new kernel. It would be wise to check /etc/grub.conf as well just to make sure the rpm did everything correctly.
