/root full of old kernel modules

Currently running a Dual AthlonMP 2000+ RH 7.3/WHM/Cpanel server with 2.4.18-27.7 kernel and my current my root partition /root is full of old kernel modules at /lib/modules

Code: 
/dev/sda1             342M  312M   12M  97% /
/dev/sda5              12G  7.4G  3.7G  67% /home
none                 1008M     0 1008M   0% /dev/shm
/dev/sda2             3.8G  2.8G  931M  76% /usr
/dev/sdb1              17G  6.4G  9.6G  40% /var

now i've never touched linux kernels before, but is cleaning up /root as simple as editing /etc/lilo.conf and removing the older kernel version entries from /etc/lilo.conf. Then run /sbin/lilo and remove actual old /lib/module/ directories ?

Code: 
du -h --max-depth=1 /lib/modules
27M     /lib/modules/2.4.18-3smp
26M     /lib/modules/2.4.18-3
27M     /lib/modules/2.4.18-27.7.x
28M     /lib/modules/2.4.18-27.7.xsmp
28M     /lib/modules/2.4.18-10smp
27M     /lib/modules/2.4.18-24.7.x
28M     /lib/modules/2.4.18-24.7.xsmp
188M    /lib/modules
