I'm still having this issue on Ubuntu Studio lowlatency kernel updates using the following cmds:
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get autoremove sudo apt-get autoclean sudo apt-get dist-upgrade Then it fails, seems to recover, not entirely convinced :( Is there a way to safely increase the boot partion ? Using an SSD drive... df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on udev 2.9G 12K 2.9G 1% /dev tmpfs 577M 1.4M 576M 1% /run /dev/dm-0 214G 137G 67G 68% / none 4.0K 0 4.0K 0% /sys/fs/cgroup none 5.0M 0 5.0M 0% /run/lock none 2.9G 100K 2.9G 1% /run/shm none 100M 36K 100M 1% /run/user /dev/sda1 236M 227M 0 100% /boot Please help... this always occurs and has been for what seems months.
