Steps 2 and 3 should be handled automagically.
Sounds about right, though I'd use rpm -ivh in all cases for a kernel
upgrade. The i386 kernel is the correct arch for all your machine(s)?
'up2date kernel'
should handle the task painlessly as well.

So I'm doing a manual kernel upgrade of a new RH73 install. The manual
process is to find all kernel RPMs with:
rpm -qa |grep kernel
which reveals:
kernel-2.4.18-3
kernel-pcmcia-cs-3.1.27-18
as well as other supporting RPMs with:
rpm -q mkinitrd sysVinit initscripts
which reveals:
mkini
