smallest I ever used for /boot was like 300MBs or so. Right now, mine
is about 400MBs and is 30% used. I'd think 100MBs would suffice if you
don't keep to many old kernels laying about. I cleaned out old kernels
a while back. Generally when I reach about 50% or so, I clean house.
This is du -shc /boot for my system. Maybe it will help you determine
the minimum size needed.

Let's see. Kernel: 12MBs at least. Grub, not sure which one is in
actual use but picking largest one: 35MBs. Stupid init thingy:
10MBs. System.map file: 4MBs. That's 61MBs. 100MBs would be a bit of
a squeeze but doable. Future needs may cause trouble tho.
Hope that helps.
