Due to the frequent updates to Fedora, it is very necessary to clear the old kernel as follows: 1. view the kernel package installed in the current system: [root@www.linuxidc.com ~] # Rpm-qa | grepkernelkernel-headers-2.6.32.12-115.fc12.i686kernel-firmware-2.6.32.12-115.fc12.noarchkernel-PAE-since the Fedora update upgrade is very frequent, it is very necessary to clear the old kernel as follows:
1. view the kernel packages installed in the current system:
Root@www.linuxidc.com ~ # Rpm-qa | grep kernel
Kernel-headers-2.6.32.12-115.fc12.i686
Kernel-firmware-2.6.32.12-115.fc12.noarch
Kernel-PAE-devel-2.6.32.11-99.fc12.i686
Kernel-devel-2.6.32.12-115.fc12.i686
Kernel-PAE-2.6.32.11-99.fc12.i686
Kernel-PAE-devel-2.6.32.12-115.fc12.i686
Kernel-PAE-2.6.32.12-115.fc12.i686
Kernel-devel-2.6.32.11-99.fc12.i686
Abrt-addon-kerneloops-1.0.9-2.fc12.i686
2. view the currently used kernel:
Root@www.linuxidc.com ~ # Uname-r
2.6.32.12-115. fc12.i686. PAE
3. Confirm the kernel to be deleted:
Here is: kernel-PAE-2.6.32.11-99.fc12.i686
4. Delete the kernel:
Root@www.linuxidc.com ~ # Yum remove kernel-PAE-2.6.32.11-99.fc12.i686
Note:
We do not recommend that you copy the kernel package from anywhere on the Internet. Instead, you can use the rpm-e method to delete the kernel package. Instead, you can use yum remove to delete the kernel package,
Because yum remove is used to delete a file, yum is automatically removed:
/Boot/grub/menu. lst.
Finally,
Check Availability of kernel-related software such as VMwae VirtualBox.
