The command below can automatically remove unused Kernels.sudo apt autoremove

3. Remove unwanted old versions of Kernel
I want to remove multiple brace expansions that can be used in bash.
The command above removes three at a time.

linux-image-4.4.0-96-generic

If we only want to remove a specific kernel on the system.
