As someone has already said it has been discussed several times, but for

And apt (synaptic) is even nicer. I keep the highest level kernel
and the next highest stable version as a backup. When I request that
synaptic install a new kernel, at the same time I remove the old
version. Grub and the /lib directory subtree are cleaned up
automagically. OK, I know it's rpm that does the dirty deed under the
covers, but synaptic makes it a lot easier to manage multiple kernel
versions in a consistent fashion.
You remove the old kernel (and its modules) whilst you're still running it?
