Hi,
Sorry to contradict you, but if someone does what you say, they will install
"all* the kernels and *all* the kernel-modules.
No, do *not* substitute "update" for "install", they mean two totally different
things.
Robert, Please explain what happened to you.
Thanks
Troy

Don't follow Troy's instructions like I did - how about:
yum --enablerepo=sl-testing install kernel\*
instead of "update"
So far it's okay for me but you might not fare as well!
