Thanks man. I suspected I had to simply purge, but it's still not meant to
happen. Is it worth reporting if it happens again or should I simply
purge?

I'm cool with either, I just wanted to know the best way to provide useful
feedback. :)

Thanks for your help on this.

I'll run all that as well instead of just purging and see if it gets rid
permanently. :)

System's okay, the crash reporter came up a load after that though. I
didn't bother reporting it all as it related to stuff I'd just removed.

VirtualBox is still there, too. Is this a bug or normal behaviour? Is
/boot meant to self clean?
