My grub menu has 3 Fedora entries (two f-40, one f-39).  There should only be 2: the f-40 entries.  What I listed above from the "ls" commands are what appear to be the extra files.  I've deleted from the output entries for the f-40 kernels and the memtest entries.  The "rpm" output is for your information.

The questions:
1. Am I correct in assuming that I get rid of the extra files listed above?
2. If yes, should I do that by using the "rm" command, or would it be better to do it another way?  If another way, how?  (Would using the "rm" command mess up a database?)
3. What else (if anything) should I do to complete this clean-up properly?
