Also, purging the current kernel is not nearly as dangerous as
it sounds: in many (most) cases, the system will keep working just as
well as before (IIUC even hibernation will keep working since you can
now resume using a different initrd&kernel than the one you're resuming
to). The main downside is usually that you won't be able to access
devices that require different drivers than the ones already loaded.
