Good. Then if the updated kernel causes you problems, you can revert to the earlier known working kernel. Understand why they do that way now?

How much space do you think you'll gain deleting older kernels? But, yes you could delete them and edit grub.conf to longer show them. I wouldn't be too hasty to delete them though.

Why? Just because there's an update available? If the update doesn't fix a critical issue or provide additional functionality for your hardware, what's the point?
