In previous versions old kernal images would not be subject to automatical removal by default, that was changed recently. It is possible that these old kernal images were installed before the change, and as such required to be cleaned up manually. That being the case the issue should not recur, and please let us know if it does so that we can track down the cause. > my system works, but I'm getting a "System Error" message on bootup, > would a re-install or repair from 13.04 disk fix this?
