Then you'll be interested in this conf file: /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/installonlyn.conf
Note that while it's easy to roll back to an earlier kernel (assuming you still have it installed) the same is not true for rolling back xen userspace code updates, which have been just as risky to upgrade as the kernel, in my experience. Just so you know. :)

In general, my experience is that xen in fedora is unstable. It usually works pretty well, but it has its rough edges, and this is hardly the first time a kernel update has broken xen. In the past, on the FC5 line, it's taken anywhere from a few days to a month or so for the fedora guys to fix an "unacceptable" problem.
That said, it's not like you're paying anybody money for Fedora.... I'm sure xen is much more stable in RHEL5.
BTW, you're aware you can have yum stop erasing old kernels, right?
Nope I duno how to stop yum removing old kernels :-S
Thanks. Askar
