There were previous posting. His question was /boot is full. The original response was to go to /boot and delete old kernels. That is where RH places them and never deletes them. It distinguishes them with labels. It was suggested that he uses rpm's and I suggested that not every user installs using rpm's. Top posting is acceptable to me because I don't need to constantly review what was previously stated and waste my time by constantly going to the end of the message. It is my suggestion that all replies to messages only containing the response or top post so that the reader can review if he wants to or not review if he chooses.
Some people only respond to the last email sent and consequently end up like you uninformed on what was previously posted. Which is why you are against top posting. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:redhat-list- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jason Dixon > Sent: Friday, August 22, 2003 11:22 AM > To: Red Hat Mailing List > Subject: RE: /Boot is full - advice please > > On Fri, 2003-08-22 at 11:54, Otto Haliburton wrote: > > You need to get a grip.
