Public bug reported: I think this problem has something to do with either insufficient space in the /boot partition or some (improper) memory the system is keeping of its prior kernels. But I haven't time right now to try all of the advice below.
I'm interested in getting back into this, so I'd like a way to get back to you. I've copied the URL above (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+filebug/cce3887e-3971-11e7 -b34a-002481e7f48a) but am not sure how I can return to this point to gather all of the info you might need. On a more general note, I'm running 14.04 now. Is it possible to directly *update* to 16.04 without intermediate steps, like 14.04 -> 14.06 -> ...-> 16.04. In my opinion your documentation is not as clear about this matter as it could and should be. But without becoming too critical, I'll leave it now.
