I think that is the wrong solution. Personally, I'd do a reinstall in your position. I'd backup home AND any configuration files you have changed. Then I'd do a reinstall and ensure that *THIS* time the / directory has a few G. I "personally" just use the whole disk most of the time: root@tal:~# df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda5 36G 34G 182M 100% / udev 10M 0 10M 0% /dev tmpfs 50M 332K 50M 1% /run tmpfs 5.0M 0 5.0M 0% /run/lock tmpfs 293M 0 293M 0% /run/shm As you can see I have a bit of juggling to do now and then anyway, but this is just my laptop. I reckon I'd have more problems if I'd set up a partioning scheme. Of course, your usage and requirements may be different. If it is just a basic home desktop, I wouldn't worry. But blocking kernel updates is the wrong way to go, IMNSHO. > How can I block them ?
