This is why I strongly discourage the use of rpm to update kernels.
If you're lucky, you still have the old kernel, which I'm told will be
the case if you installed the new one with the -i flag instead of -U
or -F. If not, and you still have a network link, you can download
the 2.2 rpms and friends. The --force option to rpm should allow you
to restore things.
Pleasepleaseplease, Red Hat: kernel updates with rpm are fraught with
peril; you lead newbies down a very bumpy road. In my humble opinion,
the old kernel should never be removed by rpm under any circumstances
... that's asking for trouble. At least leave folks a fallback.
Experienced users will know how to remove it if they want to, and it
won't hurt a thing to leave it laying around for everyone else.
