BRRABill's Field Report With Linux
-
Off to Google for article on how to clean up the boot partition.
Why does Linux seem to always make the boot partition so small? On multiple systems it always seems to fill up quickly.

failed to write (No space left on device) No apport report written because the error message indicates a disk full error
Yeah, you know I missed that until I posted it here and it got colored syntax.

That's weird, I've not see that happen in decades. How big is your boot partition?
df -h /boot
What were your install parameters?

I just nexted through the install. I didn't change any options.

What size did it give you?
-
df -h /boot Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/xvda1 236M 225M 0 100% /boot

This is what my Ubuntu 16.04.1 install gave me..
scott@scott-rog:~$ df -h /boot Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sdb2 120G 20G 101G 16% /

WTH.
Let me run through a fresh install again and see what it does...
-
Here is a fresh Mint 18 install on the Scale and what it chose to do. It's Ubuntu 16.04 under the hood.

I was curious about my CentOS VM running production owncloud. -
CentOS 7 here
[root@omega ~]# df -h /boot Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/md126 488M 133M 321M 30% /boot [root@omega ~]#

Yup, you add 4 spaces in front of what whatever you want.
like so

So it seems like it likes to undercut the boot partition?
@scottalanmiller did you manually set yours?

Yes, but not like it is now, so it didn't accept my manual changed and modified itself to that.

Just on yours, we are all seeing larger sizes of around 500MB.

Seems like (from the Google) I can delete old packages and whatnot.

Yours is about 50% smaller then the others posted.
Maybe consider extending it?
