I have a question! Since the last Sysupdate i have two installed Kernels. And i would like to remove it from the Sys.
How can I deinstall the older one of the two Kernels? I don't need it, or? |

It is up to you what to do. As root, you can use "uname -r" to check which one is running. Than with "rpm -qa | grep kernel" you can check which ones are installed. Removing can be done by using "yum remove <kernel-version>" (without the < and >). -------------------- What is SL? - Forum Rules - Info on 3rd Party Repos - How to post images - How to post large text / config files
