# dpkg -P kernel-image-2.6.8-* You will need some creativity for "*" though, I used it as wildcard but that does not work to remove packages in dpkg afaik, and if it does it's not very safe to use. You can look what you have to type with: # dpkg -l "kernel-image-*" This should show all installed kernels, just pick the right one to remove. If you can't see the full `Name' with this, make your xterm a bit bigger. > OS: Debian Sarge > > Vegard > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
