Yes, only that reinstall doesn't exist in EL4 :)
It doesn't?
rpm -Uvh <packagelist>
Creating the package list is what yum does automatically; using rpm directly means creating a list of URLs or downloading rpms individually.
See my other recent post to this thread for how that's done.
Essentially: use RPM to generate a list of all packages. List all files in those packages. Filter for files on /boot. Identify the packages with files on /boot. Reinstall those packages.
It's a shell one-liner.
