RHEL 5: RHEL kernels don't have $arch at the end, so look for non-arch kernels too.

-# Look for any kernel named vmlinuz-*.$host_cpu* which has
-# a corresponding /lib/modules/*.$host_cpu* directory.
-# However by sorting on reverse version (ls -vr) we ensure

+# Look for the most recent kernel named vmlinuz-*.<arch>* which has a
+# corresponding directory in /lib/modules/. If the architecture is x86, look

+# RHEL 5 didn't append the arch to the kernel name, so look for kernels
