[Bug 1480567] [NEW] boot partition to small on standard installation.

 

Public bug reported:

I made a STANDARD installation of Ubuntu 14.04.

Now every then and now, the system reports that there is not enough space on the boot partition.
I did empty the trash (why is THIS on /boot?)
I did apt-get clean and stuff several times.
I did remove old, unused installations.
And now it pops up again.

First I would like you to make the boot partition a few bigger on the
STANDARD installation. That's why I report this as a bug.

Second, I would like you to make that automatic: on every new install on boot, first at least remove the old installations (kernels),
empty the trash and do an apt-get clean. I am reporting that from an user view, I know I could do my own "batch file" but not my grandpa or the neighbour or whatever, you know.....

Thanks in advance for the popup "Not enough space on /boot. Do you want
automated cleaning of the boot partition?"

;)
