List of installed kernels should not grow   forum
Written by probono the 1 Mar 08 at 17:31. Global category: Installation. Implemented
Ubuntu currently doesn't upgrade the kernel, it just keeps adding newer and newer kernels to the system.

Currently, the list of kernels installed on a Ubuntu system grows over time. This takes up additional disk space and adds clutter to the boot loader.

Ideally, older kernels should be removed automatically.

Maybe leave current and current-1, but not _all_ of them...

This is done for Intrepid, with the package "system-cleaner" installed by default.
