    Still the link applies to debian as well, look for:

    
    ".deb based distro - Debian or Ubuntu Linux"

    
    And i believe the manual steps at the bottom apply to linux in
    general

        @Malte : I am not using ubuntu. Its a Debian based system.

              or maybe google, you know second result for "linux
              uninstall kernel" has your answers...

              You have a debian/ubuntu like system.

              
              Also you should always keep an old kernel in case you
              notice something broken on your new kernel.

                                         I am upgrading my machine with
                                      new version of os which have newer
                                      version of the kernel.

                                      I have to remove my current
                                      kernel(which is going to be old
                                      kernel in next reboot) after
                                      up-gradation because i don't want
                                      to get prompt to choose the kernel
                                      at booting time.

                                    
                                  I tried few methods:

                                
                                   1 . Try to remove using command (
                                sudo apt-get purge uname -r )

                              
                                  -- but after it gives a pop up (dialog
                              box) to select yes or no.(But i don't to
                              do that because system is automated, user
                              should not interact with system).

                              
                            My intention is remove to old kernel at very
                            first time when it reboot(so no prompt will
                            show to select the kernel by grub)..

                            
                          Please if you have any best solution for this.
                          please share.

                          
                        Thanks
