Public bug reported: Bug #105113: (duplicate) Desktop should do free space check on regular updates too
I wanted to report that I am still experiencing this same problem on Jaunty. During an Update Manger update of ~34 Mb which was mostly a new kernel image, there was a message about dependencies missing and I looked under "details" and it said that the boot partition had insufficient disk space. I expected the process to finish normally; but, my /boot partition filled up (down to 3.7 MiB avail). I would expect the whole transaction to be rolled back; but, apparently the update process did not roll back. Now, apparently the linux- restricted-modules package did not get installed/updated and causes this bug which is caught by Ubuntu soon after booting.
