That should be /boot/grub/grub.conf

Look for the line near the top:

default=0 (or whatever)

Underneath this you'll see a section beginning something like:

title Fedora Core 1 (kernel-xxx.xx....)
	root (hdx,x)
	kernel ....
	initrd ....

title Fedora Core 1 (kernel-yyy.yy...)
	etc
	etc

The first title section will be loaded automatically if you have
default=0, the second if you have default=1, etc.

You'll probably find the new kernel has inserted itself into first
place, so you just need to set default=0

Hope this helps,
Andy
