Hi All,

I usually do not pay much attention to the kernel entries
on my grub boot screen, but after upgrading my shop computer
from FC40 to FC41 I looked.  Oh Goody, I have kernels on
my geub boot screen all the way back to FC32!!!  3/4 of my
screen was filled with kernels!

Checking "rpm qa kernel" I only have the usual three kernels.
Checking /.boot, I only have the three that rpm says I do.
The fix was easy but hard to find on the internet.  Here are
my notes on the fix.

Stray non-existent kernels in your grub boot screen:

You should normally only have three kernels loaded and showing
in your boot screen.  To check, run the following:

    $ rpm -qa kernel
    kernel-6.11.5-100.fc39.x86_64
    kernel-6.11.5-300.fc41.x86_64
    kernel-6.11.6-300.fc41.x86_64

If after checking your /boot partition and finding that the numerous
entries in your grub boot screen are really not there, as root, cd to

       /boot/loader/entries/

And remove the stray kernel entries (not the other entries).
