No, it isn't, because you said the problem was fixed by booting the older
kernel and then installing newer updates. That indicates that it's a
problem with a previous update that has been superseded.

The 2.6.27-11 kernel is not on the install media; if you had that kernel
after your first reboot, it's because updates were applied from the network
as part of the install. One of those updates must have had a problem, but
your description doesn't give enough information to tell which.
