I can't believe they haven't taken care of this yet. When I go to delete the older kernels I get denied. I tried some other things I saw mentioned but, probably because I didn't know what I was doing, they didn't work for me either. Now, I make sure all my data is on the other hard drive and just reinstall the system... start over. I am running Lubuntu 15.04 now, we'll see.
