Nice time,

how can I remove old kernel updates? Should I delete not usable kernel files from /boot ?

/dev/sda1 99M 95M 0 100% /boot
.. so I will clear it for new updates.

grub.conf was manual changed, here new config:

#vi /boot/grub/grub.conf

title CentOS (2.6.18-164.2.1.el5.028stab066.10)
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-164.2.1.el5.028stab066.10 ro root=LABEL=/ acpi=off noapic nodmraid
        initrd /initrd-2.6.18-164.2.1.el5.028stab066.10.img

        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /memtest86+-1.65 ro root=LABEL=/ acpi=off noapic nodmraid

        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-92.el5 ro root=LABEL=/ acpi=off noapic nodmraid
        initrd /initrd-2.6.18-92.el5.img

can I delete from /boot directory files like:
*-2.6.18-128.2.1.el5.028stab0*

and leave here only
*-2.6.18-164.2.1.el5.028stab0*
?

#uname -r

2.6.18-164.2.1.el5.028stab066.10

# rpm -q kernel

kernel-2.6.18-92.el5
kernel-2.6.18-128.1.6.el5
kernel-2.6.18-128.1.10.el5
