(Was anything else displayed, like maybe dependency issues?)
rm /boot/*2.6.9-42* /boot/*2.6.9-55*
will also work (but check in /boot/grub/grub.conf!). Maybe somehow you installed these kernels without using yum/rpm or you removed the packages and somehow the files were left behind -- maybe you did a backup and restore of /boot or /boot was mounted readonly at the time you did the yum remove / rpm -e or something else (like a fresh re-install without reformatting /boot or somehow else you ended up with /boot out of sync with your rpm DB).
Check in /boot/grub/grub.conf -- any kernel shown below that is NOT mentioned in /boot/grub/grub.conf can safely be removed, either with yum (yum remove kernel-<version>), or with rpm (rpm -e kernel-<version>), or with rm (rm /boot/*<version>*). If you do use rm (if all else fails), be sure to look in /lib/modules/<version> and clean this up with rm as well.
If you *still* need more space, you can use 'yum remove kernel-<version>' or 'rpm -e kernel-<version>' of additional kernels, don't removing the running kernel! You don't *need* to keep anything but the latest kernel, although it is reasonable to keep the last 2-3 kernels as a safety measure against kernel problems (bugs in the latest kernel or drivers, etc.).

the OP just has tons of installed kernels, he has to uninstall the superfluous packages - using rpm, not rm.
rpm -q kernel will list all installed kernels then keep the 2 or 3 most recent (including the currently running one, this is a safety in case you can't boot the newer kernels)
meaning, for each kernel except the ones you want to keep, do an rpm -e or yum remove.

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.

YES, of course, unless rpm 'believes' that the kernels are NOT installed (not in rpm's database for some reason).

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.

If you install the yum-utils rpm (run "yum install yum-utils" as root) then you could use the package-cleanup command with the --old-kernels flag.
