How and where do i remove old kernel images to make space for new ones :o)



Hi all,

I'm doing my daily apt-get update and updating my
kernal-image is reporting the following.


Unpacking replacement linux-image-2.6.18-6-686 ...
dpkg: error processing
/var/cache/apt/archives/linux-image-2.6.18-6-686_2.6.18.dfsg.1-18etch3_i386.deb
(--unpack):
 failed in buffer_write(fd) (9, ret=-1): backend
dpkg-deb during
`./lib/modules/2.6.18-6-686/kernel/net/bridge/netfilter/ebt_dnat.ko':
No space left on device


df -alh says

binfmt_misc              0     0     0   - 
/proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc


as can be seen, 

/dev/hda5             250M  216M   21M  92% /

is a bit full

or could it be /usr that's causing the problems.

I'm not sure what to delete safely


Many thanks

Ken
