Remove unneeded kernels

English Install/Boot/Login
#1

After trying multiple kernels (because my tv card don’t work with 2.6.27) I ended up with a lot of unneeded kernels:

rpm -qa | grep ker | sort
kernel-debug-devel-2.6.30.2-2.1
kernel-default-2.6.27.25-0.1.1
kernel-default-2.6.27.29-5.1
kernel-default-2.6.27.31-2.1
kernel-default-2.6.30.2-2.1
kernel-default-2.6.31-3.1
kernel-default-base-2.6.30.2-2.1
kernel-default-devel-2.6.30.2-2.1
kernel-default-extra-2.6.30.2-2.1
kernel-source-2.6.27.25-0.1.1
kernel-source-2.6.27.29-5.1
kernel-source-2.6.27.31-2.1
kernel-source-2.6.29.6-jen82
kernel-source-2.6.30.2-10.1
kernel-source-2.6.30.2-2
kernel-source-2.6.30.2-2.1
kernel-source-2.6.31-3.1
kernel-syms-2.6.30.2-2.1
kernel-xen-devel-2.6.30.2-2.1
linux-kernel-headers-2.6.30-3.1

I use now:

uname -r
2.6.30.2-2-default

I don’t need the other kernels. How can I remove those? When I look in Yast, I see only one kernel-default, but multiple versions wich I can’t remove.

Thanks, I hope someone can help me.

IIRC rpm --erase will accept full package names, e.g.

rpm --erase kernel-default-2.6.27.25-0.1.1 kernel-source-2.6.27.25-0.1.1

Thank you, it works!

I did it today and destroyed nothing rotfl!
