Thanks for the reply. 1. /boot is not seperate and not out of space
2. all initrd* and vmlinuz* are of similar size, nothing exceptional 3. grub.cfg : the menuentry parts for updates 45 and 43 look identical I notice now that in menu.lst the menu part for 4.15.0-45-generic does not have the initrd line. What could cause this? (and would this explain the 'Start Linux' problem) I should have mentioned that I recently upgraded tot Linux 18.04 (on January 9) and that update '43' is most likely the version that came with the upgrade.
