Sorry if this is obvious. The current situation is that I have no "disk" space left and the upgrade is paused (^Z) after fetching 464 MB. I have minimal user-installed "stuff" on the system so it appears to have been filled up with this upgrade attempt.
I thought I would be installing the "firmware-ti-connectivity" package (for the first time) and upgrading the "bb-wl18xx-firmware" package to a newer version. The former seemed OK, but the latter (apparently) pulled in another 200+ packages. Did I do that incorrectly? Am I to "apt remove <pkg> --purge" each of the 200+ packages that were (apparently) pulled in? Still, how do I perform the upgrade to get the possible fix for my connectivity problem within available disk space? (is it impossible?)
