Yum is a program for maintaining/updating your computer. It does that by 
connecting to computers on the internet that are repositories for software 
for your distribution. It caches a copy of each program it downloads and 
installs, and it keeps a running database of what's installed on your 
computer, and what's available in the internet repositories. Yum clean all is 
a command that erases all those programs you already downloaded, and erases 
the database of programs available in the internet repositories. "yum list 
kernel" is a command to list both what's installed on your computer, and 
what's available on the internet - your list command failed because it 
couldn't perform the second part of the two part command.
