Re: [SLUG] Re: aptitude removal problem - no space left on device

[Denis Crowdy]

More on the package problem... Rather than being simply running out of
space, it's an ugly race/loop thing I think.
Turns out that both the backports and the generic modules are
installed - from the same kernel version running.

When trying to upgrade or remove the backports modules, we end up with
the following:
cp: `/lib/modules/2.6.27-14-generic/kernel/drivers/scsi/dpt_i2o.ko'
and 
`/tmp/mkinitramfs_C18636/lib/modules/2.6.27-14-generic/kernel/drivers/scsi/dpt_i2o.ko'
are the same file
cp: `/lib/modules/2.6.27-14-generic/kernel/drivers/scsi/imm.ko' and
`/tmp/mkinitramfs_C18636/lib/modules/2.6.27-14-generic/kernel/drivers/scsi/imm.ko'
are the same file
cp: `/lib/modules/2.6.27-14-generic/kernel/drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_srp.ko'
and 
`/tmp/mkinitramfs_C18636/lib/modules/2.6.27-14-generic/kernel/drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_srp.ko'
are the same file
cp: `/lib/libselinux.so.1' and
`/tmp/mkinitramfs_C18636/lib/libselinux.so.1' are the same file
cp: `/lib/klibc-zUXi_KjK5ZQAIyc8jlwme9T6a4U.so' and
`/tmp/mkinitramfs_C18636/lib/klibc-zUXi_KjK5ZQAIyc8jlwme9T6a4U.so' are
the same file
cp: `/lib/libsepol.so.1' and
`/tmp/mkinitramfs_C18636/lib/libsepol.so.1' are the same file
cp: cannot copy a directory, `/', into itself, `/tmp/mkinitramfs_C18636/'
cp: cannot copy a directory, `/', into itself, `/tmp/mkinitramfs_C18636/'
cp: cannot copy a directory, `/', into itself, `/tmp/mkinitramfs_C18636/'
cp: cannot copy a directory, `/', into itself, `/tmp/mkinitramfs_C18636/'

/tmp/mkinit... yada yada just fills up slowly and painfully until
kaboom - no space left...

have tried dpkg --forece-overwrite-dir -P package-name to no avail.

Very frustrating and I sense we are about to lose a potential convert to linux!

Thanks,

Denis

 type 'mount' in a terminal and look for filesystems.

 One of them will be low -  200MB or even less of space.

 One possibility is '/boot', which is where kernel initramfs' are built
 and saved. These can add up to quite a bit of space.
