[Bug 241368] Re: remove old kernels from grub list

It might be nice if this could be somehow configured as well. The
following configuration options seem potentially useful:

Keep X most recent kernels. Defaulted to 2, this should keep a 'known
good' kernel, and the new one, but remove older ones.

Kernel Whitelist: Never delete this kernel revision, this would allow me
to keep a 'known good' when I'm running an Alpha version of Ubuntu (as I
am now).

This is a *huge* problem on SSD devices, as my netbook only has 16 GiB
of space, and 2.4 GiB were consumed with Kernels (I removed a bunch, but
I can still remove some more).
