Some time ago there was a discussion on the above subject. I have scanned the past few month's mailing list archives and cannot find the relevant mail(s).

Could somebody please repost the solution or point me at the correct resource.

What you want is:

  # yum instal yum-utils

followed by:

  # package-cleanup --oldkernels [--count=x]

where x defaults to "2" (i.e., keep two older kernels).

I get an error:

[root@turn15 ~]# package-cleanup -y --oldkernels
Setting up yum

I will remove the following 2 kernel related packages:
kernel-devel-2.6.18-8.1.14.el5
kernel-devel-2.6.18-8.1.15.el5

kernel-devel-2.6.18-53.1.4.el5
kernel-2.6.18-53.1.4.el5

How to deal with that?

thanks,
