Jarno, I did notice that those commands were in the original script after I posted that. I got the 4.3.0-6-generic installed in Xubuntu 16.04 just a while ago and your script worked flawlessly. I had 3 kernels: 4.3.0-2-generic, 4.3.0-5-generic and 4.3.0-6-generic after installation and the 01autoremove-kernels file contained just the last 2 both before and after rebooting. The output is attached

But once autoremove is completed the machine requests to be rebooted and at that time the /etc/apt/apt.conf.d /01autoremove-kernels file lists the 3.19.0-12-generic and 3.19.0-10-generic kernels. So upon rebooting the 3.19.0-11-generic is requested to be autoremoved leaving only one kernel the latest one 3.19.0-12-generic.
