There's nothing to rollback or reverse when a kernel package is added rather than replaced. My original query is about installing an additional/new package, not a package replacement update/upgrade.
Thanks, Felix, I think we're getting somewhere. I suspect most people on this list would interpret your original question as I did, along this vein: A scenario where you've applied a kernel update with YOU that somehow breaks your system... you're seeking a "non rpm command line" solution, i.e. a graphical function in YOU or YaST2 to completely reverse the update including keeping the rpm database in sync. Now, after much digging, it seems you are actually talking about something related, but completely different: You want to add and have the option to boot from alternative kernels in such a way that, when booted, the appropriate differences are automatically reflected in the (active?) rpm database. Is this correct? - Carl
