why did you manually need to install the kernel ? you can / should use 
yum to do that for you. perhaps go with a 'yum update yum' before you 
kick everything off with a 'yum update'. if you really want the kernel 
in and running before you do the yum update, then do a yum update yum; 
yum update kernel; reboot; yum update
