You can remove the older kernels with 'yum remove ...'.  Find out what
package owns the kernel entries by running 'rpm -qf
/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.*', and remove the packages that correspond to
versions you do not want to have installed.  Using Yum/rpm to remove
the kernel package will safely remove the grub entry, as well as any
extra packages that were installed with that particular release.
