/boot, but there are symlinks in /.

$ ls -l /vml* /init*
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           26 Sep  8  2002 /initrd.img ->
/boot/initrd.img-2.4.19-k6
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           26 Sep  8  2002 /initrd.img.old ->
/boot/initrd.img-2.4.18-k6
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           22 Sep  8  2002 /vmlinuz ->
boot/vmlinuz-2.4.19-k6
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           22 Sep  8  2002 /vmlinuz.old ->
boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-k6

> And how do I remove a kernel that is no good?

Change the symlinks to point to something you want and edit your boot loade=
r
config file. I think you're running lilo, so /etc/lilo.conf.

Using apt to remove the kernel package should work, though.

$ dpkg -S /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-k6
kernel-image-2.4.18-k6: /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-k6

# apt-get remove kernel-image-2.4.18-k6

I always verify the symlinks after a kernel upgrade and I run lilo by hand
to make sure it's doing what I want. If you're using grub you just need to
verify that the config file is correct.
