Same problem as indicated above on 14.04 LTS. Why are "old" kernels left
on a drive that is too small to begin with? Thank you in advance for
fixing it. If fix would allow to expand partition (at least double it)
and remove "old" kernels, this would be great!

Title:
LVM or Encrypted install creates too small /boot partition
Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Currently if one chooses to use LVM or encrypted install, a /boot
partition is created of 236Mb
Once kernel updates start being released this partition soon fills
until people are left unable to upgrade.
While you and I might know that we need to watch partition space, many
of the people we have installing think that a windows disk is a disk
and not a partition, education is probably the key - but in the
meantime support venues keep needing to deal with the fact the
partition is too small and/or old kernels are not purged as new ones
install.
