tested it on a kvm. yum update brings in the kernel.i586 just fine yum install kernel also brings it in. not entirely surprisingly but a little confusingly: yum update kernel does not do it - I think I know why and the only nice way to fix it is to special-case the kernel.
Yum isn't updating my kernel.i686 to a kernel.i586 package. I do have kernel-PAE, kernel-headers and kernel-firmware up to date which might be a factor, but yum doesn't think the kernel.i686 package needs updating.
