    Hi,
Check the file  /boot/grub/grub.conf
Check defaults=0/---
Value should be depend which kernel version you want to use.
--reboot you will be rebooted with new kernel version.

yum and up2date do the same thing.  They install rpms.  updating your rpms

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.
