You told in #23 that you "Just ran in to this on Ubuntu 20.04", but to be precise it is not even possible, as Ubuntu 20.04 does not have linux- image-extra packages. Do linux-modules packages have some similar effect? Did you even try to remove a kernel by dpkg without running "update-initramfs -d"? Or did you even try removing a kernel by apt before that? It would be helpful if you provided the output of such commands that fail. You also told "The /boot partition is 732Mb, but is filled with initrd.img* files." Still there were no more of those than e.g. vmlinuz-* files in the listings you gave. I have contributed to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RemoveOldKernels, authored the linux- purge tool, made this bug report and provided the patch. Please follow some accuracy and relevancy in comments. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1678187 Title: Removing a linux-image-extra package fails, if /boot is about full To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/1678187/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
