installonlyn yum plugin from Jeremy Katz is included by default in the 
current development tree. It shows that as a first line in the yum 
output. The number of kernels it retains by default is 2 and is 
configurable.  Related note: Anaconda also install only the kernel 
appropriate for the system on the smp machines. Previous versions 
installed smp kernel by default and also provided the up version as 
fallback.
