[Bug 152756] Re: stale files in /var/lib/initramfs-tools after removing kernel

2017-09-20 Thread Brendan
Just for posterity's sake, I was able to solve my issue of older initrd's consuming all of the space in /boot by removing the ones whose kernel had been purged. I had a /boot partition that was quite small and nearly every kernel upgrade would fail with "no space left on device" messages. -- You

This problem existed in lucid at the time of 2.6.32-19 & 2.6.32-20. I am not sure if it has been fixed since I upgraded to maverick at that time. This problem does not exist in maverick. -- stale files in /var/lib/initramfs-tools after removing kernel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/152756 You re

I have just looked at /var/lib/initramfs-tools and all my old kernels that I have purged are still there including the currently installed kernels. Obviously this list is not being cleared. Should be easy to fix. Interesting though this does not happen under Debian testing. Rob Key -- stale fi

I also have this problem. I installed my own custom kernels and then purged them. Now when I run update-grub update-initramfs tries to update all those purged kernels. Thanks, Rob Key -- stale files in /var/lib/initramfs-tools after removing kernel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/152756 You re

I ran into this problem too while upgrading today on hardy-proposed. I upgrade on a regular basis (ie. several times a week), so I'm not sure why it only cropped up now. I remember try to compile a custom kernel once, but never got far and don't remember what tool I used. It was a while ago, def

I had the same issue happen to me. I created a custom kernel of 2.6.23, then removed it using the stock 2.6.22-14-generic kernel. Oddly enough, I also had a stale file for 2.6.22.9 in /var/lib/initramfs-tools, which I didn't install. I'm wondering if the issue lies in initramfs-tools? My custom ker
