Re: [ubuntu-uk] Unwanted kernels .....

I deduce from what I see that 14.04 automatically uninstalls (or at least makes available for autoremoving) all except the current and previous kernel, and all that is left is the conf files for previous versions. Thus (if I am correct) there should no longer be any need to worry about old kernels, which is great. Right, kernels are marked as autoinstalled by default and the latest 3 are overridden to be 'needed'. This lets apt-get autoremove drop all the older ones. A couple of you have mentioned that there are a number of kernels listed, mostly with 'rc' at the start. That implied they were removed but not purged, as the kernel really doesn't bring any config files purging them is safe and reasonable. I use 'apt-get autoremove --purge' to cleanup and avoid these building up (existing ones can be cleared with apt-get purge name). I also have used the following incantation to pull older kernels from before the change to auto-track the latest three into the system and let autoremove have at them: sudo apt-mark auto `apt-mark showmanual '^linux-(headers|image|image-extra|cloud-tools|tools)-[0-9]'` Yeah I know I am very late to the party :). -apw -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
