Title:
  do-release-upgrade doesn't check if / has sufficient disk space

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I've this old server with a rather silly partition table that
  allocates 1 GB for / (and has /home, /tmp, /usr, /var on separate
  partitions).

  I just did a do-release-upgrade from 12.04 LTS to 14.04 LTS, and in
  the end the upgrade failed, because /lib ran out of disk space while
  unpacking the new kernel modules.

  It would be nice if do-release-upgrade checked for sufficient disk
  space in all partitions.
