I have 4 kernels in /boot, leaving on 20MB which is not enough for the next one.
I had installonly_limit= set at 5, as there were some kernel problems. After I got the error that there was not enough room for another kernel, I set installonly_limit= to 3 and did the update with --exclude=kernel*
That worked to update everything else, but not remove the oldest kernel.
How can I remove the oldest kernel to make room for the new one?
yum remove kernel-rest-of-kernel-name, for example yum remove kernel-3.10.0-862.2.3.el7.x86_64
# yum remove kernel-4.14.28-201.el7.centos.armv7hl Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package kernel.armv7hl 0:4.14.28-201.el7.centos will be erased --> Finished Dependency Resolution

Only freed up 12MB. All the other kernel components are still there:
what other components? Can you give some details on what you are seeing staying around? That will help (especially since people didn't know from the first email you are on a arm system which may have different items than an x86_64)
How do I get rid of the whole lot?
thanks
