Indeed, I wouldn't advise anything below 500M. It's worth keeping in
mind `apt-get auto{remove,purge}` will keep 2 linux-image-* by default,
so unless you get rid of the older one manually, that means you need to
fit 3 kernels (and associated initramfses) at least in a transitory
fashion (until the next auto{remove,purge} call happens).
