Ian, that is not expected at all, especially not booting with the old 
kernel.
Since you still have the old contents, can you paste the contents of 
/boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf?
BTW, which BananaPi do you use? I've updated all my BPi-M1 without 
issues, but it is a rule for me to update in this order:
1) yum and rpm
2) all but kernel
3) kernel
To maybe that is why it didn't happen to me.

Thanks.
Pablo.
