IMO and experience, no. Just in case there is something wrong with the
new kernel and your box oopses it avoids the possibility that you can't
get to a grub menu and you just loop into the bad kernel on a reboot.
Once you have confirmed that the new kernel works then you can go into
grub.conf and set the new default.
