Kernel 2.6.16-1.2107_FC5 was withdrawn by redhat. Unfortunately yum
blindly picks any kernel module (kmdl), even the ones that don't have
a matching kernel anymore, to match the upgrade.

So fix this by manually telling yum what to do, e.g.
to install foo-kmdl-2.6.16-1.2111_FC5.

I think the fastest thing to do is to use anaconda for the upgrade and
then heal the wounds with smart.
