Installed with LVM in a vm, /boot size 236M

/dev/sda1                     236M   38M  186M  17% /boot

Installing with encryption and LVM  results in the same /boot size
unsurprisingly

** Description changed:

  Currently if one chooses to use encrypted install, a /boot partition is
- created of 256Mb
+ created of 236Mb
  
  Once kernel updates start being released this partition soon fills until
  people are left unable to upgrade.
  
  While you and I might know that we need to watch partition space, many
  of the people we have installing think that a windows disk is a disk and
  not a partition, education is probably the key - but in the meantime
  support venues keep needing to deal with the fact the partition is too
  small and/or old kernels are not purged as new ones install.
