and when try remove 1 unused kernel following error:
$ sudo apt-get remove linux-image-3.19.0-49-generic reading package lists... done building dependency tree reading state information... done might want run 'apt-get -f install' correct these: following packages have unmet dependencies: linux-headers-generic-lts-vivid : depends: linux-headers-3.19.0-73-generic not going installed linux-image-extra-3.19.0-49-generic : depends: linux-image-3.19.0-49-generic not going installed e: unmet dependencies. try 'apt-get -f install' no packages (or specify solution).
when try install unmet dependencies, following error.
apt-get -f install [...] unable create `/usr/src/linux-headers-3.19.0-73-generic/include/config/ath9k/common.h.dpkg-new' (while processing `./usr/src/linux-headers-3.19.0-73-generic/include/config/ath9k/common.h'): no space left on device no apport report written because error message indicates disk full error dpkg-deb: error: subprocess paste killed signal (broken pipe) errors encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/linux-headers-3.19.0-73-generic_3.19.0-73.81~14.04.1_amd64.deb e: sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned error code (1)
any suggestion can it? can manually/safely increase size of /boot drive? cheers
according man page:
"autoremove used remove packages automatically installed satisfy dependencies other packages , no longer needed."
first try:
apt-get -s autoremove
this simulated dry run of autoremove, tell remove real when run without -s option. if satsified won't nuke need, then:
apt-get autoremove
note: seems /boot partition full. run gparted live version cd (such knoppix) redistribute hard disk space , give /boot bit more room.
