What other risks do I run in this clean up???
...i would assume you have two built working kernels living in /boot or
/ somewhere? its a good idea to have a backup kernel and have
lilo.conf configured for it. why don't you do a du -sh /* or so to
see what size these things are, but of technically you could get away
without any of these if the kernels are built and modules. you would
need to relink in some cases if certain kernel patchs were installed or
so i imagine, probably a good idea in general to ln -s to the current
kernel tree in general. of course i'm a debian guy, but hope that helps?
