Thanks for the info! I have already modified it to boot the ml kernel
by default, but I was worried since the first installation of the ml
kernel has left the original kernel as a default. But at this point, if
yum will always do the Right Thing and make the current default stick to
ml, then the issue is solved. :-)

Thanks again!
