Yes. You can delete all your old kernels...
Do:
1) "uname -r" to tell you what kernel you are running.
2) "rpm -qa | grep kernel"
3) "rpm -e" all the kernel-XXX and kernel-devel-XXX kernels you want to delete.
I recommend keeping your last two kernels.
4) In addition, you might want to do the following:
rpm -e `rpm -qa | grep kernel | grep -v smp`
That will remove all kernel and kernel-devel stuff that is not smp.
