up2date not installing kernel

[Noah]

up2date agent 4.3.19

Well I am not exactly sure what to do here. 
I am finding that I am out of sync with the latest kernel release of 2.6.9 . 
When I run up2date GUI interface and choose the kernel file and install I find
that it crashes during the install process.  I have no clue why or what to do
about this.  it was supposed to install both kernel's smp and non-smp last
time I ran the Program but it installed neither.  now I am not sure where to
go from here.
