When running ‘dnf update’ the system will only keep 3 of the previous kernel versions installed. Once I attempt to install the 4th update then dnf wants to remove the oldest installed kernel (first in, first out). How can I increase or decrease the number of available/installed kernels?

Edit the file /etc/dnf/dnf.conf
, changing the numeric value in installonly_limit=3
to a number of your choice.
Be aware that if you increase the number too high then you run the risk of filling up the /boot partition.

Very handy. Never thought about this, but this makes going back very easy.
