Your solution was just as short-sighted as Robert's, yet not as
complete.  Let's assume the user *did* build their kernel(s) from
scratch.  You never told them which files to delete, you simply assume
they'll know.  Would they have asked the question if they did?

Not to mention you suggested they remove kernels from /usr/src.  First,
there are no kernels in /usr/src.  There is kernel source (and even
then, there's no guarantee it's installed).  Not to mention, the OP's
problem was that /boot is full, not /usr.  ;-)

Sorry to rant this morning, but half-wrong advice is worse than no
advice at all, IMHO.
