Over the past few weeks there have been kernel updates for Fedora 11. <br>
<br>
When my system receives updates, usually using yumex, and a new kernel
is installed, the oldest kernel in my /boot directory is deleted
automatically and any "title" commands in /boot/grub/grub.conf
referring to those kernels is also removed. There are only three
kernels at a time in my /boot directory.<br>
<br>
So far this has not been a problem, though I almost lost some special
settings in my grub.conf file when old kernels were removed.<br>
<br>
My questions:<br>
<br>
What controls how many kernels, vmlinuz and associated files, are kept
in the /boot directory? <br>
<br>
Is there any way to change this to save a different number of kernels
or insure that a specific kernel is not automatically removed from your
system?<br>
