Re: I have a full /boot and need help

["Matthew Benjamin" <msbenjamin12@xxxxxxxxx>]

move (mv) the files to a temp folder reboot. If it doesn't boot then
you will no they are needed. If it does boot, then you will know they
are not needed. In the first case you should at least come up to a grub
prompt (grub>) in that case you will need to reload the bootloader
and then all should be well. However I don't know if that will
necessarily solve your problem.

I didn't make /boot big enough and I was wondering what I can delete if anything.

this is a multi processor box so I know it needs the smp files

summary of /boot dir.

config....
config.... smp
initrd.....
initrd.....smp
System.map...
System.map....smp
vmlinuz...
vmlinuz...smp


Can I delete all but the newest of each of the above files??  Also the box hasn't been restarted for 6 months so I assume it is using and older set of files - if I delete the files it booted with will it cause the box to be unstable?
