Three Fedoras when booting my computer


Im dual booting Windows and Fedora. I think the third fedora is some kind of troubleshoot version. But the first one and the second one are the same. It happened after a software update. How can I remove one of them?

Three different kernels (two normal, one rescue) - this is perfectly normal and the way it should be. Leave it as is. Older kernels (default = three) remain as backup should a newer kernel fail to boot.

The first 2 are not the same. One is kernel 6.17.1 and the other is 6.17.9.
As stated above this is normal and 100% expected.

In fact there is a newer kernel available (6.17.10) and when you do an update and the newer kernel is installed there will then be a total of 4 kernels available for booting. After that for each time a kernel is upgraded the oldest one is normally removed.

The ‘rescue’ kernel is normally the one installed at the time fedora was first installed on the system.
