+1 The default installation on a Dell XPS 13 (a flagship device we promote) has a separate /boot partition which runs out of space once you have used it normally for some months. I have a few friends who own them and I've personally "fixed" it for them more than once. The error messages aren't clear, and don't advise what to do in this situation, it requires a technical 'expert' to resolve. It's also the case if you choose the default partitioning scheme with encrypted disk. So it's not a niche corner case (in so much as installing Ubuntu or buying an Ubuntu machine is niche already) but a common enough problem that we should fix properly and not work around with arcane command line tools.
