You need to delete the old kernels from /boot.  You can also delete them
from /usr/src.
1) Look at the grub.conf file in /etc.  The directory is in /boot (you
can go there) also.  The symbolic link to the file is in /etc.
Determine which kernels you want to delete.  Delete them from grub.conf
and from /boot.  Remember to look at the default pointer and update it
to the new default in grub.conf.  You can also go to /usr/src and delete
the old kernel directories.  Be sure and make yourself a boot floppy in
case you make a mistake.  Good luck!!!!
