Do Old Kernels Get Removed

I noticed a kernel upgrade on my Arch Linux server for the 1st time today and noticed there was no mention of deleting / removing the old Linux kernel. I assume it can't because I was booted into the kernel but after I reboot in the 2.6.32 kernel, how can I remove the old 2.6.31?

Re: Do Old Kernels Get Removed

The new kernel overwrites the old one at /boot/vmlinuz26 and also the modules.
