I, however, didn't. I saw this too late...I yum removed kernel then yum 
installed kernel.i686 and got a grubby error. Now my kernel doesn't appear 
at all in grub.conf

Can someone tell me the proper way to get it back? Or if there's no proper 
way that doesn't involve reinstalling using anaconda, just paste me their 
one so I can modify it?
