Hello!
My /boot partition is at 83% full and I've googled all the boot threads but I'm not 100% sure on how to tell which kernel packages are safe to remove. Hoping someone could help.
From reading other help threads, this is what I've understood so far, please correct me if I'm wrong
First I need to do the below command to find the kernel I'm using
#uname -a
Output
then to list installed kernel packages
# rpm -q kernel kernel-smp
Output:
So from the above info does it mean it is safe to remove the following kernel packages?
Command to remove packages is
Is this correct?
I read from another thread that I should have at least two kernel packages installed so I should only remove one from above?
What is "package kernel-smp is not installed"?
Thanks!
