With which software are you performing upgrades? Are you using update-
manager or something else?
How did you go about removing the extra kernels? Did you try 'sudo apt
autoremove' and did that work or not?

Title:
/boot fills up over and over and over
Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Recently whenever I perform a software update the /boot directory gets
filled with dozens of old, worn-out kernel builds. I'm getting sick of
having to remove them just to see them rebuilt each time a software
update is attempted and ultimately fails due to a full partition. The
/boot directory is of reasonable size. Here's df after my most recent
purge:
/dev/sda1 482922 113456 344532 25% /boot
pmeidell@eclipse:~$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
Release: 16.04
pmeidell@eclipse:~$
