Trying to remove old kernels

Jul 04, 2011, 08:11 PM

I have been trying to remove old kernels from synaptic and but in addition to "Linux_image-X.X.XX-XX-generic" i have "Linux_image-X.X.XX-XX-preempt", "Linux_image-X.X.XX-XX-server", and "Linux_image-X.X.XX-XX-virtual", should all of these be removed also?

Re: Trying to remove old kernels

yes, unless you installed any of them for a particular reason - the normal 'generic' kernel is best for normal use
