I get this error:
No Packages marked for removal

rm /boot/*2.6.9-42* /boot/*2.6.9-55*
will also work (but check in /boot/grub/grub.conf!). Maybe somehow
not sure that's a good idea...
It might make sense *as a last resort*, partitularly if something odd happened -- I mentioned several: rpm -e might have failed somehow, a fresh reinstall without reformatting /boot, a backup/restore, etc. All of these could result in the kernels *appearing* to be 'installed', but not 'visible' to rpm/yum. In which case rpm/yum won't remove them.
I agree with you Robert, but since the OP hasn't posted the output of 'rpm -q kernel' there's no reason yet to suspect that's the case. And since the OP stated he is inexperienced... I didn't want him blindly rm'ing stuff as root unless it's clearly necessary.
Right, definitely!
