Description Philipp Hahn

Our EC2 images should only contain the latest kernel, but currently contains all previous kernels:

Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-3.10.0-ucs81-amd64
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-3.10.0-ucs73-amd64
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-3.10.0-ucs58-amd64
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-3.10.0-ucs46-amd64
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-3.10.0-ucs43-amd64

Include the following command in the preparation step for new images:
  aptitude remove '?and(?installed,
  ?and(?name(linux-image-*),
  ?not(?reverse-Depends(?and(?name(univention-kernel-image-*),
  ?version(TARGET))))))'

UCS-4.2-3 and UCS-4.1-5 are cleaned.
Bug remains open util process is adapted to remove old kernel images for each future AMI.

WORKSFORME: EC2 AMIs are created from scratch from a DVD installation and contain only one kernel.
