[Bug 1357093] Re: Kernels not autoremoving, causing out of space error on LVM or Encrypted install
This really needs to be adressed ASAP. The Support Communites are flooded by angry users with blocked Packagesystems due to a full /boot blocking new kernels to be installed. In this time, when we have 5TB HDDs and even 500GB SSDs, i really dont know why we still need that small /boot partitions that it runs out of space that fast. And having no automatic removing old kernels is another issue. This really spoils the user experience, and non technical users really dont know what to do and dont feel comfortable to delete files in /boot manually. So best is do increase the /boot partition made on install and have a post-install script running that removes old kernels. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1357093 Title: Kernels not autoremoving, causing out of space error on LVM or Encrypted install To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unattended-upgrades/+bug/1357093/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1357093] Re: Kernels not autoremoving, causing out of space error on LVM or Encrypted install
There are a number of bugs marked duplicates of this bug that really aren't. The size of /boot is orthogonal to the issue of purging unused kernels. 256 MB gives the ability to install approximately 4 kernels. For some of us that's not enough, and we need to specify a larger /boot. Shortly, I intend to unmark 1465050 as a duplicate, and mark 1511911 as a duplicate of that. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1357093 Title: Kernels not autoremoving, causing out of space error on LVM or Encrypted install To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unattended-upgrades/+bug/1357093/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Change summary, because /boot is always to small on "LVM or Encrypted install". The former summary read like it was a user error, while it isn't. ** Summary changed: - Kernels not autoremoving, causing out of space error on LVM or Encrypted install with small /boot partition + Kernels not autoremoving, causing out of space error on LVM or Encrypted install -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1357093 Title: Kernels not autoremoving, causing out of space error on LVM or Encrypted install To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1357093/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
