I always keep the very first kernel, the current / latest, and the
previous. And usually one or two from a few months back.
There may not be a lot of logic to it but that's what I do.
You should IMO always have a fall-back option. Once upon a time
I had a new kernel that rather bizarrely ran the clock too fast.
This had the effect of totally messing up my time-sheeting for the

@Ian, I had a clear out a while back.
history shows the following
apt-get purge linux-image-4.15.0-74-generic
apt-get purge -y linux-headers-4.15.0-74
apt-get purge -y linux-modules-4.15.0-74-generic
And these to show what was installed:
apt-mark showauto 'linux-image-.*'
apt-mark showmanual 'linux-image-.*'
My general rule when clearing out unused kernel
pages is to keep
