*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 199086 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/199086
I see your point, the causality of both this and 199086 are the same, /boot is full, preventing kernel-package from installing (which is what I was going on). I assumed that the fix to both problems would be the same. If you want this bug report to stand alone again, fine by me. But it does seem that the Kernel Team is working on a scheme to auto- remove kernels using a 'last-good-boot' mechanism, thereby fixing both of these bugs by never allowing /boot to fill up. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/removing-old-kernels. I guess the question is, if this fix gets implemented, can it be disabled? And if so do you still need a fail-safe check of free space in /boot either by kernel-package or by update-manager? Both? Also can this bug, duplicate or not, be considered triaged? Can be considered confirmed? -- Upgrade failed because /boot ran out of disk space https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/120489 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
