Use "rpm -qa | grep kernel" to see what kernels are installed. On my
system this shows:

        kernel-pcmcia-cs-3.1.31-13
        kernel-source-2.4.20-20.9
        kernel-2.4.20-19.9
        kernel-2.4.20-20.9

Use rpm to erase all but the two most recent kernels. In my case I only
have two so I would leave it as it is. But, If I wanted to keep only the
very latest kernel I could use:

        rpm -e kernel-2.4.20-19.9

Notice that "kernel-pcmcia-cs-3.1.31-13" is not a kernel and should not
be deleted.
