On one of my systems, /boot is getting quite full with all the kernel updates and I'd like to delete most of the old ones, keeping a couple of the most recent ones. Does one then need to delete the corresponding lines for the deleted kernels in grub.conf?
You don't need to, but you might as well - if you try to boot a kernel that isn't there, it will fail.
Does anything have to be done after that so grub is aware, like one had to do with the old lilo.conf, i.e., run lilo after any changes that were made?
No, Grub picks up the changes on the fly. Steve Gaarder System Administrator, Dept of Mathematics Cornell University, Ithaca, NY, USA [EMAIL PROTECTED]
