We generally don't know how much space is going to be needed. APT only keeps 2 kernel versions around, and the /boot partition is sized accordingly for 3.
If you override this by marking kernels as manually installed, or manually installing other versions you need to ensure that there is enough space for those.
I only see two kernels installed though, so it's not clear to me how you could be running out of space in /boot in the first place.
Are there additional files in there? The kernels shouldn't fill that up.
