Sorry I was not clear enough.
When I said "Filled with" I meant that they were the files occupying space. I'm 
sorry if that gave the idea that the corresponding vmlinuz-* files weren't 
present - it was just that in terms of bytes occupied, the initrd files are the 
big ones.

As you can see from the directory listings, this has been a problem,
and, since I'm using a Lenovo Thinkbook 15, I used the OEM kernel
install. I probably followed https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/OEMKernel to
install it and it fixed my audio problems.

When removing kernels, I followed the instructions on the
RemoveOldKernels page once I found them.

What this bug is about is that when you somehow get a full /boot (from
whatever cause), the updates stop working. Since /boot is a finite
resource, it would be nice if the system could recover either
automatically, or in an easy-to-initiate way.

Thank you for my free operating system :-)
