Hi, This is supposedly a job for "purge-kernels.service" run at boot. Due to mistakes it was not default enabled. Please all run once: systemctl enable purge-kernels.service On next reboot the superflous kernels will be cleaned. (You can trigger it manually with systemctl start purge-kernels.service Ciao, Marcus On Sun, Jun 29, 2014 at 09:50:20AM -0400, Charles Philip Chan wrote:

and /boot is also littered with files from the kernel packages.
But WHY were the kernels accumulating in the first place?
This I want to know also.
There were only supposed to be 2 generations (plus maybe the running one).
Agreed.
This is supposed to be dealt with automatically, there shouldn't be the need for the manual intervention.
Agreed.
