I did call it by name only on a clean install of FC6, same error.

Transaction Check Error:   package kernel-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 is already installed
  file /boot/System.map-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 from install of
kernel-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 conflicts with file from package
kernel-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6

and from the install I have:
kernel-headers-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6.i386
kernel-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6.i586


Ah well, will have to sort it out....
