Maybe somehow not sure that's a good idea... 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.
