  • or offline partition shrinking, moving after a data backup if you have personal files you care about

    what you are saying is: copy all your data to another drive, expand the boot partition shrinking the main storage drive and then copying back?

  • [SOLVED] while upgrading from debian 12.11 to 13.0 errors were encountered while processing: plymouth, plymouth-label and initramfs-tools, how do I solve this?

    Jump

  • just to avoid misunderstandings, I assume the final >french accent lemmy wont show< in your code is lemmy code and you forgot to type the >french accent lemmy wont show< at the beginning of the command, right? because the one without the >french accent lemmy wont show< returns -bash: update-initramfs: command not found

    incidentally, another member suggested I run sudo dpkg-reconfigure initramfs-tools

    it returns:

    update-initramfs: deferring update (trigger activated) Processing triggers for initramfs-tools (0.148.3) ... update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-6.12.41+deb13-amd64 zstd: error 70 : Write error : cannot write block : No space left on device E: mkinitramfs failure cpio 141 E: mkinitramfs failure zstd -q -9 -T0 70 update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-6.12.41+deb13-amd64 with 1. dpkg: error processing package initramfs-tools (--configure): installed initramfs-tools package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: initramfs-tools

    but this is something I don't understand. I deleted 6 old kernels already. There are only 3 left.

    After checking KDE Partition Manager for /boot and /boot/efi both have free space left:

    /boot size: 488 MiB

    /boot used: 396.26 MiB

    /boot/efi size: 512 MiB

    /boot/efi used: 10.52 MiB
