This seems pretty bad, and mainly unmanageable by most average users. A lot of question are generated, like these: http://askubuntu.com/questions/342820/trying-to-update-but-not-enough-space-on-boot-answer-here http://askubuntu.com/questions/298487/not-enough-free-disk-space-when-upgrading http://askubuntu.com/questions/142926/cant-upgrade-due-to-low-disk-space-on-boot http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2142894
