如何删除 CentOS 6 更新后产生的多余的内核？

第一种方法：通过命令的方式解决多余的内核

1.首先查看当前内核的版本号:

[root@jxatei ~]# uname  -a

Linux jxatei.server2.6.32-573.1.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Sat Jul 25 17:05:50 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64x86_64 GNU/Linux

2.查询系统中全部的内核:

[root@jxatei ~]# rpm  -qa|grep kernel

kernel-2.6.32-504.30.3.el6.x86_64

kernel-headers-2.6.32-573.1.1.el6.x86_64

kernel-2.6.32-573.1.1.el6.x86_64

kernel-2.6.32-504.el6.x86_64

dracut-kernel-004-388.el6.noarch

kernel-firmware-2.6.32-573.1.1.el6.noarch

3. 以上是我CentOS的内核版本号，其中红色为要删除的版本号:

[root@jxatei ~]# yum  remove  kernel-2.6.32-504.30.3.el6.x86_64

 4.重启后就可以看到,内核被删掉了,同时多余的启动项也自动被删掉了。

   重启系统后，可以通过查看以下两个文件是否还有多余内核代码:

[root@jxatei ~]#vi /boot/grub/grub.conf

[root@jxatei ]# vi /boot/grub/menu.lst

第二种方法：通过修改“menu.lst”文件，删除红色部分来解决多余的内核

[root@jxatei ~]# vi  /boot/grub/menu.lst

# grub.confgenerated by anaconda

#

# Note thatyou do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this

file

#          all kernel and initrd paths arerelative to /boot/, eg.

#          initrd /initrd-[generic-]version.img

第三种方法：通过修改”grub.cfg”文件解决多余的内核

[root@jxatei ~]#vi /boot/grub/grub.conf

# grub.confgenerated by anaconda

#

# Note thatyou do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this

file

# NOTICE:  You have a /boot partition.  This means that

#          kernel /vmlinuz-version roroot=/dev/sda3

#          initrd /initrd-[generic-]version.img

#boot=/dev/sda

default=0

timeout=5

小结，其实第二、三种方法非常相似，都是修改文件，而且内容都是一样的。sky建议，如果我们要成为Linux专家，只有多使用命令的习惯性操作。
