I tried remove and purge and autoremove

sudo apt-get remove linux-image-4.15.0-58-generic
sudo apt-get purge linux-image-4.15.0-58-generic
sudo apt-get autoremove

I'm currently logged in 4.15.0-55-generic. I tried to remove 4.15.0-58-generic which caused login loops. I tried to reboot again and I can only login 4.15.0-55.

Sometimes I get this error. I don't know how to go to this directory and check what's in it. rmdir: failed to remove '/lib/modules/4.15.0-58-generic': Directory not empty

I also don't know why there are so many images.

Thank you

  • And maybe you have to run sudo update-grub2 – schrodingerscatcuriosity Aug 14 '19 at 13:52
  • I'm not sure if the issue is because it is the latest version. I tried sudo update-grub 2 and I tried using synaptic manager. There was no option to uninstall it. So I installed it and rebooted. I ran into the same issue again when trying to use 4.15.0-58 instead of 4.15.0-55. The login screen/graphics appears to be of different resolution for this version. After I enter my password, it tries to login and loops back to the login screen. I think there might be a bug with this version since I did make changes. Maybe, I should try to fix this issue instead of removing the linux image. – ConnectionistSystems Aug 14 '19 at 14:17
