	Well, it looks like it downloaded the kernal ok, but failed to
update your bootloader to use the new kernal.  You need to figure out
which bootloader you are using (usually lilo or grub) and then check it's
config to ensure the new kernal is loaded at boot.

There are good walkthroughs for both of these on the net.  I would suggest
the following pulled from the first five google hits (google is my
friend). ^_^
