I must say, my experience is the opposite -
I used to find that distribution kernels often would not run
on one or other of my (7) machines,
but I haven't had any such problem with FC-6 or Fedora-7.
What I have noticed is that I get much more gumpf on the screen
when I re-boot, much of it about USB.
I don't read this properly - it flashes by too fast, for one thing -
and it doesn't seem to be repeated in /var/log/dmesg
(or if I run "dmesg").
I sort of thought everything that came up on the screen
when re-booting would appear in a log file?
