Operating Systems Linux Red Hat Downgrade kernel version with yum Post 302540724 by verdepollo on Thursday 21st of July 2011 12:13:40 PM

Yes, you can install as many kernels as you want, but only use one at a time.

Code:
yum install kernel-2.6.x.x.x.x.x

Then edit grub.conf and choose the kernel you want to use on startup.

You'll need to reboot your computer for the new kernel to be loaded.
