up after itself  as a result the ./boot partition got filled up and it
was no longer  possible to do other tasks,  the same is happened with
xubuntu.

I used synaptic to remove old kernels,  having identified the current
kernel with uname -a,

I would expect the update tools to be removing old kernels, but would
also expect it to leave an older one in place as a back up in case
anything happens (so more of a failsafe),
