Title: Can't install updates because out of space Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Update manager says there are some updates for me to install but (as of yesterday - 15th Aug 2014) it can't install them because there isn't enough space in /boot. It suggests emptying the recycle bin (I have) and using 'sudo apt-get clean' to remove temporary packages from previous installations (I have). That doesn't work. Also, I only installed 14.04 fairly recently (in the last month) from scratch (no upgrade) using the default installation options for partitioning etc (as far as I know) so it shouldn't have filled up like this. I also ran 'sudo apt-get autoremove' then 'sudo apt-get clean' but no success either. I'm on a 256 GB SSD (Dell XPS 13 Developer Edition) with an encrypted harddrive. I know I *could* spend some time hunting around for instructions to remove old kernel packages from the command line but there really aren't that many there and it's a pretty poor user experience if that is required. I'm guessing that's not the intention so I can only think that this is a bug...but I'm not sure where. --- ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.3 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: laura 2376 F.... pulseaudio CurrentDesktop: Unity DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-07-13 (33 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20140417) MachineType: Dell Inc.
