First do "rpm -q kernel", then you'll get a list of the kernels installed, e.g.: kernel-<oldversion1> kernel-<oldversion2> kernel-<currently_used_version> Now do "rpm -e kernel-<oldversion1> kernel-<oldversion2>" to uninstall the two old kernels from the example list above. When you have several versions of the same package installed you need to let RPM know which version(s) you want to be removed. -- Emanuel Mair ___________________________________________________ e@mair.com Support free hardware choice and save AmigaOS! mair@medstud.gu.se http://AmigaPOP.8bit.co.uk .-. .- -.. .. --- -....- .- -.- - .. ...- .. - .-.- - ...-.- -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
