    I had installed several upgrades and updates for linux. Now when I start my
    machine, I get a boot menu :

    Linux
    Redhat Linux 8.0
    Linux.bak
    Linux.bak1

    How do I get rid of all these listings. On the same machine, I have
    Win98/200/XP so in the same boot menu I have an option to boot into Windows.
    I need to get rid of all the Linux listings except for the most recent.

    Thank you
    Sherif
