Oh well, I am still learning Linux. I just use it as a
workstation/backup machine. Here:
$ du -s /lib/modules/*
44764   /lib/modules/2.6.18-3-k7
51747   /lib/modules/2.6.18-4-k7
1       /lib/modules/2.6.8-3-k7

Hmm, this won't work because I ran apt-get clean yesterday after the

$ ls -all /var/cache/apt/archives/
total 32
