evendough people talk about not adding more comments to this thread.
i had the problem, then they/you/here they said solution is upgrade to
16.04
- i solved the problem manually und than upgraded to 16.04
- now some months later i wanted to update && upgrade my server and boot
is full again. - and i had to solve it manually again.
so for my experience > fix didn't work.
what i did is:
- nothing
- just have the unatended auto updater install security updates. (configured as in 14.04) super default basic.
i now loocket in to the "50unattended-upgrades" file and
// Do automatic removal of new unused dependencies after the upgrade
// (equivalent to apt-get autoremove)
// Unattended-Upgrade::Remove-Unused-Dependencies "false";
is commented..
Would i need to change that? or is that the unrelated one?

Title:
Kernels not autoremoving, causing out of space error on LVM or
Encrypted installation or on any installation, when /boot partition
gets full
Status in unattended-upgrades package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
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.
For workaround and sytem repair, see
