Comment 37 for bug 241368

I'm glad people are discussing and proposing fixes to this bug, and I have some questions.

This script, from what I understand, creates a suggested command (but doesn't run it) to remove all but the last good boot kernel and the highest numbered kernel, right? If not, please clarify.

I worry that this script doesn't address the original problem of a confused new user after updating. First, I'm assuming this script would automatically run after an update, and it would also be changed to actually run the 'sudo apt-get remove ...' command, right?

Second, when the user reboots, there are still two kernels to choose from in the Grub list. Plus, there still isn't any indication about which one to pick. How can we explain, either on the Grub menu or before the user reboots, which one to pick?

Perhaps we could change the listing for the latest kernel to be appended with an "(Updated)" or "(Recommended)" or something?
