Holy ****!  Batman...

Now install 20-27.7 normally.. .if you can.  If not take a couple of those old 
kernel off of there.  Free up some space and install the new kernel with an 
-ivh

Yeah, keep the 20-24 as the backup and delete all the other kernels.

Yikes.  11 kernels... let's see 30M a piece..... goodnight!!!
