Yes, I only keep the latest two kernels. There is no point in keeping more
if the last two work properly, for home machines. Each kernel image takes
around 30 MB + space for the linux-headers. For older kernels which are
never used, this is space wasted. Removing old kernels is easy from the
Ubuntu Software Center.
