. . . I have in my /boot directory four kernels -- the

3.13.0-126. i do not currently have nor do I imagine ever having need for
the last three. Thought I'd get rid of 'em, but they do not show up in
Ubuntu Cleaner or anything else capable of sending them to the bit bucket.
So. Anybody know any reason I'd want to keep them and, absent such a
reason, anybody know a quick and complete way of deleting them? Used to be
they'd always at least show up in Synaptic, but not this time.
This is strange that you have those in /boot and no package in the list.
Are you sure that when you execute dpkg -l | grep 4.4.0-124 (or 3.13.0-147)
nothing pops up?
if so deleting manually is easy. Remove everything /boot/*4.4.0-124* (or
3.13.0-147) and from /lib/modules/*4.4.0-124*
Execute update-grub and it is done.
