I am using the .i686 architecture RPMs. :)
===================================
FYI, I have downloaded from http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/i386/os/Packages/ both the

* kernel-headers-2.6.32.2-18.fc13.i686.rpm

and

* kernel-PAE-2.6.32.2-18.fc13.i686.rpm
===================================
Now I am in search of the kernel-firmware-2.6.32.2-18.fc13.noarch.rpm which is not at the above URL, in order to invoke my yum install... :confused:

At the end of December 2009, I was able to get the previous RPMs for the kernel-headers-2.6.32.2-15.fc13.i686.rpm & kernel-PAE-2.6.32.2-15.fc13.i686.rpm as well as the kernel-firmware-2.6.32.2-15.fc13.noarch.rpm, too at the above URL...

Any insight on where to acquire this kernel-firmware RPM is greatly appreciated. :)

Kernel-firmware was replaced with linux-firmware as it is now a stand along package.
And yes, you can boot into the old kernel if needed.

$ rpm -q linux-firmware
linux-firmware-20100106-1.fc13.noarch

:) Cool, SlowJet! Thank you, all's well now. I'll try to remember that for the next version. :)
