If you have more than one kernel source installed, remove all but the 
one you are using.  I, for example, have three sources that I always 
keep.  One old kernel that I know works well, one that I am currently 
using and one that I have not yet switched to yet.  I tend to clean out 
the rest.

Since space is a issue for you, you really only need the kernel sources 
for the kernel you are using.  One could argue that if you have a well 
built kernel and don't plan to change it in the future, you could remove 
its sources too.  I would save a copy of the config tho.
