When you login to your system and /boot is full, don’t panic!
Run this command and lean back, take a cup of coffee and relax, breath!
dpkg -l linux-* | awk '/^ii/{ print $2}' | grep -v -e `uname -r | cut -f1,2 -d"-"` | grep -e [0-9] | xargs sudo apt-get -y purge
When it’s done, it’s a good idéa to:
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade
Once again, lean back, take a cup of coffee, find your inner zen!
