It's the same situation as 'rm > -rf /boot' or 'rpm -e --allmatches kernel'. I tend to agree, though it's a hazardous possibility, and the sort of thing that's usually covered by an alias, or required option, to the command. While I might well install/upgrade a non-specific kernel. If I were going to remove a kernel, I'd be specifying which particular one. And those doing something just like "yum update", with no further parameters (perhaps, other than the less-than-clever "-y"), the installing of the latest kernel and removal of the oldest one, ought to be automatically handled the way it always has done (by the update routine). -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 14 01:31:27 UTC 2013 x86_64 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
