Keep more than one. Just rpm -e the packages you don't want. e.g. rpm -e kernel*2.6.11* kernel*2.6.12* kernel*2.6.13* kernel*2.6.14* That should remove all but the latest three. If you cannot use SMP kernels, because of your CPU, you could remove all the SMP ones. -- Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. I read messages from the public lists.
