Kernel Erase


Ok I went a thread on this site about learning how to erase earilier versions of the kernel. I typed this:
rpm --query --all 'kernel*'
and got this response:
kernel-pcmcia-cs-3.1.31-16
kernel-utils-2.4-9.1.101.fedora
kernel-2.4.22-1.2179.nptl
kernel-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl
kernel-2.4.22-1.2174.nptl
Then I typed:
rpm --erase kernel-2.4.22-1.2115
and got this response:
error: package kernel-2.4.22-1.2115 is not installed.
What up?

Nevermind, I figured it out. Type:
rpm --erase kernel-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl
instead of:
rpm --erase kernel-2.4.22-1.2115
