Sorry, I think I'm replying to Paul instead of the OP, but I deleted that original post from my email. If you don't want to remove the kernel you're not using for whatever reason, just edit: /boot/grub/menu.lst and comment out the 8 lines that comprise the 2 kernel options of the kernel image you don't want to use. Like this: # nano /boot/grub/menu.lst ..... ## ## End Default Options ## title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.26-2-686 root (hd0,0) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-2-686 root=/dev/sda1 ro vga=791 quiet initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-2-686 title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.26-2-686 (single-user mode) root (hd0,0) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-2-686 root=/dev/sda1 ro vga=791 single initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-2-686 ##title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.26-1-686 ##root (hd0,0) ##kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-1-686 root=/dev/sda1 ro vga=791 quiet ##initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-1-686 ##title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.26-1-686 (single-user mode) ##root (hd0,0) ##kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-1-686 root=/dev/sda1 ro vga=791 single ##initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-1-686 You can see that I'm not interested in seeing the 2.6.26-1-686 kernel image as an option when I boot my machine, so I have commented those entries out. ----------------------------------------- On Thu, 23 Apr 2009 15:09:07 +0200 csanyi...@gmail.com wrote: >Lenny Jaan <lennyj...@gmail.com> writes: > >> How do I get rid of other 2 entries from the boot screen ? > >sudo aptitude purge linux-image-2.6.26-1-686 > >or so. >
