Another minor note
I use apt-get to clean out old kernels, and it runs update-grub
automatically for me.
However, before it does, there's always this line before the actual
update-grub output:

You shouldn't call /sbin/update-grub. Please call /usr/sbin/update-grub
instead!

Have never tried with aptitude, although maybe I will the next time there's
a kernel update.

Cheers,

Jimmy Wu
