I didn't write that. Brian T. Brunner did.

It is for sure. But you don't seem to boot those kernels, but a
separate one on some boot disk or boot partition. If that is true,
you need to update your boot "thingy" everytime you erase a kernel
package. 'rpm -i' or better 'rpm -ivh' (verbose/hash output) installs
a new kernel and doesn't erase old kernels. Whenever you 'rpm -e' an
old kernel, update your boot media.
