Comment 8 for bug 1191389

I cleaned it up using the following:
dpkg -l linux-* | awk '/^ii/{ print $2}' | grep -v -e `uname -r | cut -f1,2
-d"-"` | grep -e [0-9] | xargs sudo apt-get -y purge

I donn't have the output before cleanup, but I can tell you it was a bunch
of old kernel images.

my system works, but I'm getting a "System Error" message on bootup,
would a re-install or repair from 13.04 disk fix this?

Thanks,

Gary
