Removing obsolete, unwanted grub items ... how?
by LinWinux from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5ACAM)
Hi everyone.
Well, the grub configuration seems to have changed a lot during the past 5+ years ...
Utilizing MX Linux which has been updated & upgraded multiple times now, I can no longer figure out precisely where I can go in order to remove obsolete entries. There seem to be several locations with grub related files. Currently I have 8 entries for the previous 4 kernels. I would like to simply remove the oldest two entries, since it annoys me to have the startup screen cluttered with things that I don't want to see.
Perhaps an automated process, to delete older kernel entries automatically?
Any helpful thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.
