yum doesn't remove kernels when installing new ones. I guess this is a 
safety precaution (one which has saved my data on a number of 
occasions!) in case the new one fails for some reason.

I still have a number of fc4 kernels installed, which I will not be 
removing until I can't upgrade further without doing so.
