[SOLVED] Delete old linux kernel

[TrevorH]

That's not the way to do it.

To remove a kernel that you do not want, first you need to make sure you are not running it as yum will refuse to remove the running kernel. So reboot and select a different kernel from the grub menu and then use yum remove kernel-3.10.0-514.2.2.el7.x86_64

Done.

Thank you. I've had to remove this kernel version because crash for me.

Code: Select all

yum remove kernel-3.10.0-514.6.1.el7.x86_64

You should find out why it does not work and fix it. That kernel contains an important security fix.
