/boot directory out of space
We applied updates on saturday and noted that we have used 97% of our /boot directory. How can I tell what files i can keep or get rid of in this directory? or how can I increase the size of this partition.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 3 (Taroon Update 9)
2.4.21-57.ELsmp
Thank you in advance.
