Does kernel -19 work on the same system?
Yes, -19 works on the same system.
At first I did "yum localupdate --nogpg kernel-*". There was a warning about
a POSTTRANS scriptlet failure, but yum did not abort. The boot hangs.
Then I did "rpm --erase" of -24 and "rpm --install" of -24, and the
message was:
-----
/sbin/new-kernel-pkg: line 289: 2334 Segmentation fault (core dumped) $tool
mkinitrd failed
warning: %posttrans(kernel-2.6.33.1-24.fc13.x86_64) scriptlet failed, exit status 1

and "rpm --verify" said:

.......T. /lib/modules/2.6.33.1-24.fc13.x86_64/modules.builtin.bin

The system is up-to-date w.r.t. "yum update".
