Mine has been a "no thrills" experience:
$rpm -q kernel
kernel-2.6.25-8.fc9.i686

$ uname -a
Linux davidtnotebook 2.6.25-8.fc9.i686 #1 SMP Wed Apr 23 03:56:19 EDT 
2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

$ uptime
 19:42:26 up  5:26,  5 users,  load average: 1.35, 0.50, 0.22

Sean: did the update complete normally, and write into /var/log/messages ?
Are you on x86_64 ?
What is the bug number ?
