Public bug reported:
Apologies if this is the wrong component. I am writing about the
"reinstall" process that the Ubuntu installer provides as an
installation option.
This option worked great, however it left a number of old kernels in
/boot. It did remove the kernel modules from /lib/modules, but the
kernels themselves still hung around. This caused a problem on my next
boot when one of these old kernels was booted by default (I had been
debugging a mainline kernel) and I had no mouse support because there
were no modules.
If the reinstall procedure is going to delete modules from /lib/modules,
it needs to delete the images from /boot as well.
