Hi all,
I've updated the kernel for my ubuntu hardy heron from 2.6.24-19 to 2.6.24-23. My question is: can I comment out the statements for the older kernel to simplify the menu or have I to leave all the strings there for some stability purpose? I think yes but I prefer to have some confirmations from you since I'm not a skill Linux user.

Yes you can comment out the old kernel sections. I just delete them when I delete the old kernels from /boot.

I've commented out and all works well now.
Thanks a lot.
