I have a 237MB /boot partition which I thought should be enough for normal operation, however, when I do a apt-get upgrade I get the following:
$ sudo apt-get upgrade

Calculating upgrade... The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
linux-headers-4.2.0-16 linux-headers-4.2.0-16-generic linux-headers-4.2.0-27

linux-image-extra-4.2.0-27-generic linux-signed-image-4.2.0-27-generic
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
Done
