Sure, no problems at all.

I don't see any reason to make that very big at all.

Well, it holds the vmlinuz, initrd, System.map, abi (?), and config files.
Plus GRUB and it's various files.

On my notebook here, with four kernels (but only *two* initrd files), that's 33MB.

It's really easy to accumulate kernels through updates and the like -- they generally leave the old ones laying around just in case the newly installed one fails to boot for any (peculiar) reason.

50MB is a tiny, tiny fraction of 1TB (1000000MB). Amazing, that.
