The kernel data is spread across several sub-packages. You will also need kernel-core,
kernel-modules, and any other kernel package you have for the other kernels, such as the
devel package. Try 'rpm -qa kernel-\*’ to see all kernel package you have installed.
The kernel package is a metapackage that pulls in both kernel-core and
kernel-modules if you install it. The vmlinuz file is in kernel-core.
