Perhaps more to the point, make sure you have room for several
kernels in /boot. You don't have to uninstall a kernel in order
to install a new one. If you are careful with your lilo, or grub,
you can get a choice of kernels at boot time. This in invaluable
if the new kernel doesn't work!
I've found 50MB for / to be too cramped at times.
