Detail

I wanted to run soup to update the security onion server but it failed because of not enough disk space in /boot.

In /boot there are several old initramfs-X.XX.X- and vmlinuz-X.XX.X- files.
What is the recommended way to remove these old kernels to free up space for soup ?

Guidelines

• I have read the discussion guidelines at Read before posting! #1720 and assert that I have followed the guidelines.

In 2.4.40 we switched the ISO to set the /boot partition to 1G since others were running into this issue, but we were unable to replicate it ourselves.

Others have manually removed old kernels you may have to do the same keeping the current and 1 version older.#11859
