and don't forget to run "uname -a" to get your currently running kernel version and make sure you don't delete that!
"IF" "uname -a" isn't the latest version you have in /boot, some
more investigation as to why will be needed.

The OP should read the section of the Gentoo manual on kernel install to learn what files are installed where. Yea, but just rm the kernels and initramfs's from /boot and you're golden. FWIW, I usually only upgrade my kernel when it's a major revision.

As far as I'm aware, depclean only installs files it installed, so it
leaves quite a lot of garbage lying around from kernels, including the
/usr/src/kernel-xx-xx-xx directory and various files involved in making
your kernel, that you've modified.
