Bug Description
The script do-release-upgrade downloads the file intrepid.tar.gz which does some checks in DistUpgradeCont
If you have removed old kernals and friends directly from /boot , then do-release-upgrade could say for example that you need to have 88.1M free space on /boot (even if you only have 12M files of 100M).
I think the checks should (instead/also) check what is physically free.

Michael, this got milestoned by someone. Setting you as assignee. If you think that this shouldn't be milestoned (sounds like it from my perspective), please un-milestone and un-assign as you see fit. Thanks!
