If your goal is to remove old kernels, one way to do that is with System > Administration > Computer Janitor.

Alternatively, if you want us to provide a Terminal command that will remove your old kernels, then you'll have to open a Terminal window, paste in the command

uname -a; dpkg -l | grep linux\*

press enter to run it, then copy all the text from the Terminal and paste it here.
