Hello,

 

Just got word about the new kernel update, but when looking in my logs
for the update, I just see an errormessage about "not enough space on
/boot". This most probably because I have been installing a couple of
kernel updates automatically using up2date, and never deleted anything.
I have redhat 7.3 and grub installed
How do I (commandline) delete the old kernels from grub?
   

First I used "rpm -e" to remove the old kernel(s) but that caused some
problems. So yust quick and dirty, I've removed all files (config<kernel>,
initrd<kernel>, module-info<kernel>, System.map<kernel> , Vmlinux<kernel>,
Vmlinuz<kernel> ) related to a specific kernel from /boot and removed the
kernel entries from /boot/grub/grub.conf .
 

after editing grub.conf, is there any command needed to be fun in order 
to make grub understand that the config file is changed?

I'm admining the rh box remotely and can't afford it to hang during boot.
