Thanks Bill.

Here's the list I got from the command:

[root@beer root]# rpm -qa|grep kernel
kernel-2.4.7-10
kernel-2.4.20-13.7
kernel-2.4.20-20.7
kernel-2.4.18-27.7.x
kernel-headers-2.4.9-34
kernel-2.4.18-19.7.x
kernel-2.4.18-18.7.x
kernel-2.4.20-18.7
kernel-2.4.18-17.7.x
kernel-2.4.18-17.7.x
kernel-2.4.20-19.7
[root@beer root]#

I presume the more recent are numbered higher, so I'd want to keep 2.4.7-10
and 2.4.20-20.7, but delete the rest or do I have that wrong?

Thanks!

Stuart
