Hi list, I updated my apt repo and there was a kernel update. I ran the update, and received an error claiming "no space left on device." Normally, I would do a force-uninstall for the currently running kernel (freeing space), then install the new kernel and reboot. However, this is an update, not a replacement. I'm not sure how to proceed. When I installed this system, I selected automatic partitioning with an encrypted LVM, so I imagine resizing the partition would prove difficult. I'm not sure why the automatic partitioner didn't provide for enough space for future updates. See below for the relevant logs. This is on Debian Jessie.
