You can remove old kernels by using: rpm -e kernel-2.(the old versions) Run rpm -qa|grep kernel to see what old kernels you have. Run uname -r to get your current kernel. When I get around to cleaning things up, I like to leave at least the previous one and, of course, the current one. I believe that rpm -e will also clean up grub. -- Clifford Snow
