installing kernel-debs



Hello list

I have, in the last few weeks, compiled a lot of kernels (with
make-kpkg)
Well, I have installed these kernel-image-blah.deb's, but without
removing the old ones. dpkg -l shows

ii kernel-image-2. # <-- dpk -l does not show more of the package
version
ii kernel-image-2.
ii kernel-image-2.
ii kernel-image-2.
...

How can I safely remove the old ones (whose files were overwritten by
the newer ones) ?
I could make a 2.4.5 kernel and remove all the 2.4.3.deb's, but will
this work? won't dpkg complain about files that are not there but should
be there?

That's nothing!  If you play it forward, it'll install Windows 2000.
