[Bug 1515363] [NEW] /boot full could be handled more gracefully? -- package linux-image-3.16.0-53-generic 3.16.0-53.72~14.04.1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2

 

Public bug reported:

/boot was full yesterday, then I did a sudo apt-get autoremove, then
first boot entry in grub menu led to kernel panic, second boot entry
booted normally OK, but on boot this error keeps popping up about half a
million times.. ;-) In an ideal world, it would be nice if this scenario
could be handled more gracefully.
