today's kernel update barfed on me, "package kernel-xxxx needs YY MB on /boot". I managed to install the update by manually moving the old kernel images to /tmp, installing the update rpm, and then moving them back, but for obvious reasons I don't want to have to do that with every kernel update, so here's the plea for inspiration:
how can I resize /dev/sda1 and the filesystem on it, without loosing anythign on my system?
The situation:
/dev/sda[abcd] exist. /dev/sda1 is a bog-standard ext4, 150MB, mounted on /boot
Surely you cannot need all the kernels that must be installed to exhaust all the space on a 150MB /boot filesystem. How many are there? 2 should be enough. I just added 5.3.18-lp152-20.7-default to a 15.2 system, which consumed ~39MB on /boot. 9 kernels live in this /boot. Total space consumed by /boot is 1.0GiB. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is religion, not science. Team OS/2 ** Reg. Linux User #211409 ** a11y rocks!
