      So it seems like it likes to undercut the boot partition?

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

        @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.

        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?

            I've run into this on two of the last 3 systems I've tried to upgrade... I just remove all but the most recent kernel files, and then run the upgrade again.

            Ubuntu 15.10 at initial Install

            Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
            /dev/vda1       236M  111M  113M  50% /boot
            

            Ubuntu 14.04 at initial install

            Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
            /dev/sda1       134M   72M   53M  58% /boot
            

            KVM Server on Ubuntu 15.10: No separate /boot partition (root FS is ext4)

            OpenSuSE Tumbleweed: No separate /boot partition (root FS is btrfs)

              That's what I am doing, though only the absolute oldest, as the Google said not remove too many recent ones in case anything depends on them.

              But, you are saying it's safe to delete everything except the one running? (Obviously.)

                I've run into this multiple times in the past with Ubuntu. For some reason old kernel images aren't removed when space is running low. To check your current image use uname -r. Then you can uninstall the older images.

                  And I can delete every kernel image I am not using?

                    I ask because I did an "autopurge" and it left two of them.

                      You can but I'd keep one or two extra to fall back on.

                        Essentially,. that's what I do... But I copy the /boot directory somewhere else on my main partition just in case I need to put it back, lol.

                            Can, yes. Best practice is to always keep at least one old one. But if you've been using the current one for a while, that's unnecessary.

                                  Advanced? More like a mishmash of old and new that ends up breaking lots of things.

                                    So, was having some issues with my GrayLog instance. I have a feeling that it has run out of space. Would you agree?

                                    I think LVM is confusing me again.

                                      Yes, /dev/dm-o is full, which completely breaks graylog.

                                      I had this happen to me as well, and just built a new vm. Once the VM was operational I reduced the indices by half.

                                        Yes you're out of space on your root directory.

                                          I figure this would be a good Linux learning experience. 🙂

                                          I was thinking of following this link. It's for VMWare, but most of the Ubuntu commands should be the same, I would think.

                                            What does that do to storage size?

                                            I had a Splunk instance running for weeks and never had any issues like this, which is why it surprised me.
