Ubuntu 18.04 - Remove Old Kernel Lines
If you upgraded your Ubuntu 18.04 machine to the 5.0 kernel, it can be annoying to keep getting updates for the older kernels if you don't want them anymore.
To remove the existing kernels and prevent getting future updates for them run the following:
uname -a
.
# Remove 4.15 kernels
sudo apt-get remove linux-headers-4.15.* -y && \
sudo apt-get remove linux-image-4.15.* -y && \
sudo apt-get autoremove -y && \
sudo update-grub
