Hi David, I've been trying for some time now to get YUM to find a new 
kernel, but after updating my yum.conf file to an exact copy of yours 
from the website, I get the following error when running yum update:

[root@localhost doug]# yum update
Gathering package information from servers
Getting headers from: Yellow Dog Linux 3.01 updates
Getting headers from: Yellow Dog Linux $releasever - $basearch - freshrpms
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/yum", line 44, in ?
    yummain.main(sys.argv[1:])
  File "yummain.py", line 141, in main

  File "clientStuff.py", line 104, in HeaderInfoNevralLoad
ValueError: unpack list of wrong size
[root@localhost doug]#

Here is my yum.conf file:
