This happens when you have two versions of the kernel rpm installed. We
have a fix for that planned but not deployed yet. However, having two
versions of the kernel rpm installed is a symptom of a larger problem.
"athinfo astrophel packages" confirms that you have both the old and new
kernel package installed, and also that there have been a number of
failed attempts to update from 9.2.1. Please send your
/var/athena/update.log so I can try to see what went wrong.
