Detecting/Removing Kernel

Ok so, the kernel was updated when I was installing updates and I when I tried to remove the old kernel. It gave me an error telling me to rerun grub boot loader or something and when I tried to detect the kernels, I found that the kernel was still in the records but not when the computer was starting up.
