Description of problem: Did a yum update and had these messages, I don't know how critical it is but the message "fatal error" does make me safe. I assigned to kernel but could also grubby. … Download delta size: 5.0 M (1/3): kernel-3.1.0-0.rc10.git0.1.fc16_3.1.0-1.fc16.x86_64.drpm | 4.5 MB 00:07 (2/3): kernel-headers-3.1.0-0.rc10.git0.1.fc16_3.1.0-1.fc16.x86_64.drpm | 110 kB 00:00 (3/3): kernel-tools-3.1.0-0.rc10.git0.1.fc16_3.1.0-1.fc16.x86_64.drpm | 385 kB 00:00 Finishing rebuild of rpms, from deltarpms <locally rebuilding deltarpms> | 25 MB 00:22 Presto reduced the update size by 80% (from 25 M to 5.0 M).

That seems more like grubby than the kernel. What version of grubby do you have installed?
rpm -qa |grep grub grubby-8.3-1.fc16.x86_64 grub2-1.99-10.fc16.x86_64 grub-efi-0.97-83.fc16.x86_64 Actually I don't remember having installed grubby by myself, but perhaps I'm wrong.
