Thanks Andre.  I did this, both ways (to be sure! to be sure!).
However, upon re-boot the old Kernels, all the way back to ver #16 still
displays.  Do I presume, therefore that this will only take effect in
future?

So I'm left with the original problem.  How to get rid of the listing
upon boot up?
