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.
