Hi, I've just tried to update FC5 to FC6 (planing to go to F8), after
following the steps listed in the fedora wiki (Upgrading Fedora Using
Yum) the system upgraded nearly 600 packages. But I had the feeling of
not seeing the kernel upgraded, so I checked /boot/grub/grub.conf and
there I've got:

title Fedora Core (2.6.20-1.2320.fc5smp)
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-1.2320.fc5smp ro root=LABEL=/
        initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.20-1.2320.fc5smp.img
title Fedora Core (2.6.20-1.2312.fc5smp)
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-1.2312.fc5smp ro root=LABEL=/
        initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.20-1.2312.fc5smp.img

and those are just kernels from FC5, not one from FC6.

Is there something I'm missing? The machine isn't near me so I'm
somewhat concerned before rebooting.

I suspect I need to have a FC6 kernel, but how do I force it to install?

Thanks for suggestions!
