[Bug 1417520] Re: Software updater claims not enough space on /boot to perform upgrades

[Eduard Grebe]

Actually, in the past using aptitude to perform the upgrades after this
message worked. This time it didn't until I manually removed some old
kernals, presumably freeing up space on the boot partition.
