Hello I'm Bob and new to this group. After finally managing to run a dual
boot with Grub. Things were fine until I installed the updates. Now in the
boot grub I have 2 versions of Kernel.

Top is 2.4.20-30.9
Next 2.4.20-8
Next Dos- which is xp

It really doesn t seem to make a difference I use either boot of RHL the
free space is the same and aside from that both boots of RH is the same.
Should this matter or can someone kindly tell me how I can remove the old
version from my Grub as it annoys me a bit.

Thanks
Bob
