linux内核中删除文件,[技巧] Linux Deepin 删除旧内核文件的方法

Linux Deepin 在升级新的内核后，如何删除旧的内核文件？

举例来说，假设我们刚刚运行了 apt-get dist-upgrade 升级到了仓库中最新的内核版本(如从 3.2.0-30 升级到了 3.2.0-34)

Default

$ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

The following NEW packages will be installed:

The following packages will be upgraded:

libgrip0 linux-headers-generic linux-image-generic

3 upgraded, 6 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

Need to get 50.9 MB of archives.

After this operation, 181 MB of additional disk space will be used.

首先我们需要知道已经安装了哪些内核版本，可以使用下面的命令：

Default

$ dpkg --get-selections | grep linux

fonts-linuxlibertineinstall

libselinux1install

linux-firmwareinstall

linux-headers-3.2.0-30install

linux-headers-3.2.0-30-genericinstall

linux-headers-3.2.0-34install

linux-headers-3.2.0-34-genericinstall

linux-headers-genericinstall

linux-image-3.2.0-30-genericinstall

linux-image-3.2.0-34-genericinstall

linux-image-genericinstall

linux-libc-devinstall

linux-sound-baseinstall

pptp-linuxinstall

syslinuxinstall

syslinux-commoninstall

util-linuxinstall

linux-image-genericinstall

linux-libc-devinstall

linux-sound-baseinstall

pptp-linuxinstall

syslinuxinstall

syslinux-commoninstall

util-linuxinstall

这样，我们就可以从中找到旧的内核文件(linux-headers-3.2.0-30 linux-headers-3.2.0-30-generic linux-image-3.2.0-30-generic)，相应地将他们删除：

Default

$ sudo apt-get purge linux-headers-3.2.0-30 linux-headers-3.2.0-30-generic linux-image-3.2.0-30-generic

The following packages will be REMOVED:

linux-image-3.2.0-30-generic*

0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 3 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

After this operation, 180 MB disk space will be freed.

Linux Deepin 在使用 apt-get 更新与删除旧内核后会自动调用 update-grub 更新 grub.cfg 文件，这样，我们就不用担心删除旧内核后因为 grub 的配置原因而无法从新的内核启动的问题。

重启后，我们即可在新的 grub 菜单中从新内核启动。
