Stuck running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS on a Lenova desktop with a small boot partition now with 0(zero) bytes after many upgrades. Currently at 4.4.0-71-generic but new upgrades fail. Have tried suggestions from many "solutions" but still can not upgrade.

None of the following free-up space:

sudo apt-get clean

sudo apt autoremove --purge

sudo apt-get autoremove --purge

sudo purge-old-kernels

sudo apt autoremove

sudo apt-get purge linux-image-4.4.0-67

Have also purged all the other old linux-images that do not have dependencies.

Any new suggestions?

  • With the sheer size of todays hard drives I don't understand why people insist on making /boot as small as possible. If you do you need to keep as few kernels as possible, I suggest no more then 3 – Panther Jun 05 '17 at 14:37
