[Bug 1529709] Re: Ubuntu update - doesn't have enough free disk space

[Brian Murray]

Thank you for taking the time to report this issue and helping to make
Ubuntu better. Examining the information you have given us, this does
not appear to be a bug report so we are closing it and converting it to
a question in the support tracker. We appreciate the difficulties you
are facing, but it would make more sense to raise problems you are
having in the support tracker at https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu if
you are uncertain if they are bugs. For help on reporting bugs, see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#When%20not%20to%20file%20a%20bug.

You might also try "sudo apt-get autoremove" to remove some old kernels
which will free space in your /boot partition.

Title:
  Ubuntu update - doesn't have enough free disk space

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  When trying to update Ubuntu, system tells me
  ''Software updater''
  Not enough free disk space
  The upgrade needs a total of 66,6 M free space on disk '/boot'. Please free at least an additional 4210 k of disk space on '/boot'. Empty your trash and remove temporary packages of former installations using 'sudo apt-get clean'.
