Hi,
I think this is general Linux, though I'm actually using Ubuntu Studio.
I have a laptop that has been running for years and been upgraded through various versions of the kernel.
The current kernel is 5.x and /boot has config-5..., initrd.img-5..., System.map-5..., and vmlinuz-5...
It also has a lot of versions of config-3.x.., initrd.img-3.x.., System.map-3.x.., and vmlinuz-3.x.
sudo apt autoremove and sudo apt autoremove --purge does not get rid of the 3.x files.
Is it safe to just delete them? They don't show in the grub menu at boot, is a grub update required after I delete them?
Thanks,
Mac
