I think we should add GUI to 
- list all installed kernels.
- letting user to remove all kernels except the current one or newer.
- shortcut "clear all older than current"

Title:
 update-initramfs should produce a more helpful error when there isn't
 enough  free space

Status in initramfs-tools:
 Confirmed
Status in Ubuntu:
 Fix Released
Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu:
 Confirmed

Bug description:
 Binary package hint: initramfs-tools

 When generating a new initramfs there is no check for available free
 space, subsequently its possible for update-initramfs to fail due to a
 lack of free space.  This is resulting in package installation
 failures for initramfs-tools.  For example:

 Setting up initramfs-tools (0.98.8ubuntu3) ...
 update-initramfs: deferring update (trigger activated)
 Processing triggers for initramfs-tools ...
 update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.38-8-generic

 gzip: stdout: No space left on device
 E: mkinitramfs failure cpio 141 gzip 1
 update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-2.6.38-8-generic
 dpkg: error processing initramfs-tools (--configure):
  subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

 WORKAROUND:

 Remove unused kernels using computer janitor or manually free space on
 your partition containing the /boot file system.
