I have yesterday updated Scientific spin of Fedora. Nowbafter the hefty update of 2.2 GB . I am facing an issue.
Do you mean, you ran yum update on a Fedora 20 install?
After booting The computer the boot screen is showing up four option : 1 fedora 3.17 heisunbug 2 fedora 3.11 fedora.i636 3 failsafe rescue mode 4 windows 7
While fedora 21 is around the corner , I want to know that Why I am getting two fedora boot option ? How can I remove 2 option ? Will it affect my apps ?
1 and 2 are basically two different kernels - when you install a new kernel, a new entry is created in the grub menu. If you want to remove a grub option you can edit the grub config file usually located in /boot.
Unless it's a kernel module or an applicaiton which takes any advantage of a feature in 3.17 kernel, I believe user-level apps shouldn't be affected.
There is of course a way to upgrade to Fedora 21 when it's released.
Hope that helps.
