Had modified my cleanmodules2 to cleanmodule3 to compare
directories with kernels in /boot
cat cleanmodules3
#!/bin/bash
ls -1 | grep x86_64>x1
y=$(ls -1 /boot/vmlinuz* | grep -v rescue| cut -b15-100)
for a in $y; do grep -v $a <x1 >x2; mv x2 x1; done
for a in $(cat x1); do
echo "$a";
rm ./"$a"/* -f -r;
rmdir "$a";
done
rm x1
gets a listing of directorys in the /lib/modules or could do in the
/usr/src/kernels directory
The it sets $y to be the current kernels from /boot
Then removes the current ones from listing in file x1
Then removes file and directories that are not those.
My /usr/src/kernels only have the latest 3.
In modules directory, I had a special module for a USB wifi card
that I had to build since Fedora wasn't seeing the adapter with
native ones. But didn't have any left over source directories.
For me running script seems to work in either directory.
created an older directory in both and run script from within each
directory, and it removed the ones not list in /boot as kernels.
But would recommand doing a backup of files before testing.
If someone knows of better way to accomplish the same. Seems
there should be a better method, but it seems to work.
