[Bug 1479344] Re: Ubuntu Installer makes /boot partition too small on encrypted lvm setup
If you experiment with kernel, well, then you know what you are doing (or learn it). The default of the installer is just too small for running updates more than 2 month (actually this happened again after one month here). This is bad and breaks the whole system, urging you to reinstall or change the distribution or whatever your skill might allow. I tried to manually partition with LVM+encryption in the installer, which is complex and I did not find a solution for a common key for all vg, ended up having to give a password for every single partition in the vg. No thanks, wiped and used standards, and now the situation appears again. /dev/sda1236M 92M 133M 41% /boot (after cleaning up with apt-get autoremove) is just crappy in times of TB drives. If you really need such a small partition, you can do it yourself. Found many bugs about this, some being quite old: #1465050 #1067106 #1357093 #1460396 #237035 Please, change it for the LTS version.

[Bug 1479344] Re: Ubuntu Installer makes /boot partition too small on encrypted lvm setup
/boot partition is big enough to contain few kernels. Even a bigger /boot would become full, if old unused kernels are never removed, and new kernel updates keep coming. Some people may want to install kernels from more than one series; e.g. they install linux-image-generic-lts-wily to experiment on newer kernels on Trusty. Or they may want to install manually some upstream kernels (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds?action=show&redirect=KernelMainlineBuilds) The question is how big is adequate /boot? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1479344 Title: Ubuntu Installer makes /boot partition too small on encrypted lvm setup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1479344/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

/dev/sda1236M167M 57M 75% /boot currently there are several images installed: dpkg -l | grep '^ii' | grep ux-image| wc 11 1631980 The number of kernels is likely to be larger. In newer packages of bikeshed (not in 12.04) there is a script for removing old kernels: purge-old-kernels It has a number of dependencies, so maybe only an option for desktop. at least it freed space for one kernel here: dpkg -l | grep '^ii' | grep ux-image| wc 9 1321614 /dev/sda1236M128M 96M 58% /boot -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1479344 Title: Ubuntu Installer makes /boot partition too small on encrypted lvm setup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1479344/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1479344] Re: Ubuntu Installer makes /boot partition too small on encrypted lvm setup
There are frequent visitors to the #ubuntu channel with "apt-get dist- upgrade" failures due to full /boot partitions. I think the installer should provide a warning if the /boot partition is likely to be too small to accommodate several kernels etc, and should not create a frustratingly small /boot partition by default. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1479344 Title: Ubuntu Installer makes /boot partition too small on encrypted lvm setup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1479344/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
