- How to uninstall kernels?
- Posted by Adm 4600cc SFO on October 9th, 2003
Red Hat 9 came with 2.4.20-8 kernel, and the latest I installed (via
redhat network) was 2.4.20-20.9. Now at boot up in GRUB menu I have
two selections. Since I don't need the older one, how could I remove
it?

ROOT cleanup:
in a console, at the root prompt: root#> rpm-qa | grep kernel
AFTER it returns with the list of kernels, kernel tools, you can remove
what you want:
root># rpm -e kernel-debug.2.4.20-8-1

There is nothing wrong with having the option to boot the other kernel, in
case the new one does not work as expected. However, the grub menu is in
/boot/grub/menu.lst. Just edit it to your choice.
