distribution, just so you can use the install cd as a rescue disk if
need be. On my rh7.2 system I have the 2.4.7.x kernel, the last 2.4.9,
the latest 2.4.18 shipped by redhat. It doesn't hurt anything to keep
them around, and only uses a little bit of space.
I would also boot and use newer kernels for a couple of days first
before getting rid of old ones. You can never be too careful.
Another great tip is to (unusually) never freshen (rpm -Fvh kernel.blah.rpm). This will obviously
replace ur oldie with the newie, and if ur system don't like it you're in deep crap.
