Yes, thanks, John, I saw that, but it didn't seem even to download the kernels - it
said that I had marked them to be skipped in the config file, which, of course, I have
done.

man up2date
<snippet>
‐d, ‐‐download
download packages only, do not install them. This option is
provided so that you can override the configuration option "Do
not install packages after retrieval." It is mutually exclusive
with the ‐‐install option.

Just update what you want updated, skipping the kernel, and then issue
up2date again with the appropriate handlers [ ie. up2date -fd )
