...trying to install the latest stable kernel and I get this:
| Code: | papapenguin linux-3.10.7-gentoo-r1 # cp arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage /boot/kernel-3.10.7-gentoo-r1
cp: error writing '/boot/kernel-3.10.7-gentoo-r1': No space left on device
cp: failed to extend '/boot/kernel-3.10.7-gentoo-r1': No space left on device |
when unmounted, here is:
| Code: | papapenguin ~ # df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3 145G 77G 61G 56% /
devtmpfs 1.9G 0 1.9G 0% /dev
tmpfs 389M 584K 388M 1% /run
shm 1.9G 0 1.9G 0% /dev/shm
papapenguin ~ # |
and when boot is mounted:
| Code: |
papapenguin ~ # df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3 145G 77G 61G 56% /
devtmpfs 1.9G 0 1.9G 0% /dev
tmpfs 389M 584K 388M 1% /run
shm 1.9G 0 1.9G 0% /dev/shm
/dev/sda1 99M 99M 0 100% /boot
papapenguin ~ # |
I removed old kernels...but must be missing something...

| Your output confirms the error message. You have no space to install the kernel. Remove some files and try again. |

papapenguin,
... removed old kernels from where ?
emerge -C ... and removing the sources from /usr/src/ don't count.
You need to remove old kernels and/or initramfs files from /boot, as its /boot thats full.

...thanks guys, but what is the command to remove the files from boot?
yes, Neddy, I did remove them from usr/src...just don't know how to remove them here...
...duh...I just had to mount /boot and then remove them directly from there using rm -rf...
I had kernels there from way back to 2.6 !
