I had this problem about a month ago and deleted old kernels and it worked fine at that point. I had tried a few different flavors before I settled on Lubuntu so I thought that might be why I had the older kernel versions floating around. Here I am with the same problem again.

I'll admit that I am a relative noob on linux so the problem may be with the user! I am posting this information primarily to try and help. I'm going to delete the extra kernels again and see how it goes. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/798414 Title: update-initramfs should produce a more helpful error when there isn't enough free space To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/initramfs-tools/+bug/798414/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
