Oh man. My machine\u00a0still keep the kernel 3.xx.xx. It’s already version 4.4.x now! I need to remove the old ones. I got this command ‘sudo purge-old-kernels’ can remove them. The website says:
\n“purge-old-kernels will remove old kernel and header packages from the system, freeing disk space. It will never remove the currently running kernel. By default, it will keep at least the latest 2 kernels, but the user can override that value using the –keep parameter. Any additional parameters will be passed directly to apt-get(8).”
\nBut first update my system and install ‘bikeshed’<\/p>\n
teddy@teddy-K43SJ:~$ sudo apt-get update\r\nteddy@teddy-K43SJ:~$ sudo apt-get install bikeshed<\/pre>\n
then run ‘sudo purge-old-kernels’ command! (NOTE: READ THE KERNELS LISTED FIRST BEFORE TYPING ‘Y’ TO DELETE THEM! BE CAREFUL! CREATE A BACKUP FIRST!!!)<\/p>\n
