| basilarchia | boo. what has happened on our fonts. Do we as linux developers not love our fonts anymore? | 05:22 |
|---|---|---|
| basilarchia | the list and selection of fonts is terrible in the current version of ubuntu-mate. I don't know if it's a GIMP display interface issue, how the gimp now works, some weird packages that got installed or just how ubuntu works in general at this point. | 05:23 |
| basilarchia | There were some great free fonts a few years ago, the names escape me but they all seem to be gone now. I can't imagine what reason they would be removed | 05:24 |
| basilarchia | some really good designers went out of their way to specifically make free fonts for us IMHO | 05:25 |
| basilarchia | I suppose it's some sort of backward compatability error that will have to fixed or backported | 05:27 |
| basilarchia | side ported might be a better way to say it rather than "back" ported | 05:27 |
| basilarchia | unforked | 05:27 |
| basilarchia | No user needs to be presented with 8 million "Noto Serif" font names | 05:28 |
| basilarchia | that's not how that should work ever | 05:28 |
| gerard | bonsoir | 16:29 |
| gerard | je n'utilise pas très souvent ce mode d'échange, soyez indulgent; merci !!! | 16:29 |
| gerard | situation inedite, firefox plante dés son lancement !!! | 16:32 |
| latitude | Hello all I need help freeing up space on in /boot can anyone help me out | 17:23 |
| diogenes_ | latitude, remove old kernels | 17:25 |
| latitude | ok How do I do that I'm new to linux | 17:25 |
| latitude | I can't see /root from the terminal | 17:26 |
| diogenes_ | ok why do you need that in the first place? | 17:26 |
| latitude | I keep getting warning that I have 0 space in /boot and it prevents me from updating and installing new software | 17:27 |
| diogenes_ | ok first open terminal and run: lsblk | 17:28 |
| latitude | ok brb | 17:28 |
| latitude | Ok i did | 17:28 |
| basilarchia | or paste the output from 'df -h' | 17:28 |
| diogenes_ | latitude, whatever you get copy and then go here: https://paste.ubuntu.com/ | 17:29 |
| diogenes_ | paste the output in there click paste ad share the link here | 17:29 |
| latitude | ok let you know when done thank you | 17:29 |
| latitude | https://paste.ubuntu.com/26043042/ | 17:30 |
| diogenes_ | in the same fashion you share here the output of the command given by basilarchia | 17:32 |
| latitude | ok | 17:32 |
| latitude | https://paste.ubuntu.com/26043059/ | 17:33 |
| diogenes_ | and the optput of: uname -r | 17:34 |
| diogenes_ | and the output of ls /boot | 17:34 |
| latitude | https://paste.ubuntu.com/26043083/ | 17:37 |
| diogenes_ | and the other one? | 17:37 |
| latitude | both are in the same one | 17:37 |
| diogenes_ | oh ok they are both here | 17:37 |
| diogenes_ | are you sure the ls /boot is the entire output? because I don't see initrd.img-4.4.0-66-generi | 17:39 |
| latitude | I will run again and check | 17:40 |
| diogenes_ | ok | 17:40 |
| latitude | I ran it twice more and there is not line like that | 17:41 |
| diogenes_ | hmm strange ok now you have to run gksu namo /boot | 17:41 |
| diogenes_ | or wait | 17:42 |
| diogenes_ | I dn't know what is the file manager in mate | 17:42 |
| diogenes_ | what is the file manager called? | 17:42 |
| latitude | not sure let me check | 17:42 |
| latitude | caja | 17:45 |
| latitude | ?? | 17:45 |
| diogenes_ | ok | 17:45 |
| diogenes_ | run: gksu caja /boot | 17:45 |
| latitude | thats what google said | 17:45 |
| basilarchia | weird. ya, this shit should never happen | 17:46 |
| basilarchia | apt should be smart enough to remove the old kernels | 17:46 |
| diogenes_ | latitude, did you run? | 17:47 |
| basilarchia | dpkg -l |grep linux-image | 17:47 |
| latitude | Its running now | 17:47 |
| diogenes_ | basilarchia, is there an apt command that does this? | 17:47 |
| basilarchia | then just remove some of your kernel packages | 17:47 |
| basilarchia | well, it should be automatic in this case, but this is a weird case | 17:47 |
| diogenes_ | yes but let not leave him remove anything on his own because he is a newbie | 17:48 |
| basilarchia | did you specifically create a 500MB /boot partition for some reason or did the ubuntu-mate installer do that? | 17:48 |
| latitude | I really can't remember | 17:48 |
| diogenes_ | latitude, did my command opened the caja? | 17:49 |
| latitude | I got a bunch or messages and warning | 17:50 |
| latitude | you want me to paste like before | 17:50 |
| diogenes_ | no | 17:50 |
| diogenes_ | press ctrl+c | 17:51 |
| diogenes_ | and wait a bit I'm preparing a paste for you | 17:51 |
| latitude | it stopped running already | 17:51 |
| diogenes_ | latitude, meanwhile you run in terminal: sudo apt install gksu | 17:53 |
| latitude | i ran it somethings didn't install | 17:54 |
| diogenes_ | why it didn't install? | 17:55 |
| latitude | it said gksu is already the newest version | 17:55 |
| diogenes_ | ok then wait I'm finishing the file for you | 17:55 |
| latitude | ok thank you | 17:55 |
| diogenes_ | latitude, run: gksu caja | 17:57 |
| diogenes_ | it should open the file manager | 17:57 |
| diogenes_ | you gonna have to enter your password | 17:57 |
| latitude | ok its open | 17:58 |
| diogenes_ | go to your /boot directory | 17:58 |
| latitude | ok there | 17:59 |
| diogenes_ | latitude, open this link in your browser: http://paste.ubuntu.com/26043209/ | 17:59 |
| latitude | ok | 18:00 |
| latitude | i have opened it | 18:01 |
| diogenes_ | now extremely careful | 18:01 |
| diogenes_ | remove ONLY the files listed in the given link | 18:01 |
| diogenes_ | don't touch the files that end in -66 -57 and -93 | 18:01 |
| latitude | copy | 18:01 |
| diogenes_ | remove the files in your /boot directory the files I've mentioned in the link | 18:02 |
| diogenes_ | right click and remove | 18:02 |
| diogenes_ | remember only the ones given in the link, double check before removing, otherwise you might end up with a broken system | 18:03 |
| latitude | ok I notice that -47 are removed from all except initrd.img-4.4.0 | 18:06 |
| diogenes_ | ok now run: ls /boot | 18:07 |
| diogenes_ | and share the link here | 18:07 |
| latitude | ok not finished yet lol | 18:07 |
| diogenes_ | ok when you finish | 18:07 |
| latitude | should i remove initrd.img-4.4.0-47-generic?? | 18:09 |
| diogenes_ | is it listed there? in my link? | 18:10 |
| latitude | no | 18:10 |
| diogenes_ | ok remove it anyway | 18:10 |
| latitude | https://paste.ubuntu.com/26043326/ | 18:11 |
| latitude | brb I have to take the dogs out..lol | 18:12 |
| diogenes_ | ok good now you can update | 18:12 |
| diogenes_ | it should be ok | 18:12 |
| latitude | ok thank you | 18:17 |
| latitude | where those old kernals?? | 18:18 |
| latitude | Have a full /boot can someone help me free this up. I can't update | 18:31 |
| alkisg | latitude: dpkg -l '*linux*' | grep ^ii | nc termbin.com 9999 | 18:38 |
| alkisg | latitude: this will show you the packages. Copy the names of 2-3 that you want to remove, and type sudo dpkg --purge linux-blablaversiongoeshere | 18:40 |
| alkisg | dpkg will free up space, so then you can resume working with apt | 18:41 |
| latitude | alkisg I manually removed old kernels.. I think they where | 18:41 |
| latitude | what is the command again | 18:41 |
| alkisg | (08:38:31 μμ) alkisg: latitude: dpkg -l '*linux*' | grep ^ii | nc termbin.com 9999 | 18:41 |
| latitude | ok its running? | 18:43 |
| alkisg | latitude: paste the output here, e.g. termbin.com/qwer | 18:43 |
| latitude | do I include the termbin.com 9999 at the end....Noting seams to be happening | 18:45 |
| alkisg | You misstyped something. Anyway, just type dpkg -l '*linux*' | 18:45 |
| alkisg | And put the result to paste.ubuntu.com | 18:45 |
| latitude | diogenes_ still not enough free space | 18:46 |
| diogenes_ | latitude, did u reboot? | 18:46 |
| latitude | yeah | 18:46 |
| latitude | Well I restarted | 18:47 |
| diogenes_ | latitude, again: df -h | 18:48 |
| latitude | Here is the result https://paste.ubuntu.com/26043548/ | 18:49 |
| alkisg | latitude: what about my command? dpkg -l '*linux*' | 18:49 |
| latitude | I will paste the link | 18:50 |
| latitude | https://paste.ubuntu.com/26043563/ | 18:51 |
| alkisg | This is not the command I asked | 18:52 |
| alkisg | Use copy/paste | 18:53 |
| latitude | https://paste.ubuntu.com/26043571/ | 18:53 |
| latitude | try that | 18:53 |
| alkisg | Yes, you have tens of linux packages there | 18:55 |
| alkisg | bb in 20'... | 18:55 |
| latitude | ok thank you | 18:56 |
| diogenes_ | latitude, you didn't have to make a separate /boot partition | 18:56 |
| latitude | it was my first install of ANY linux OS | 18:57 |
| diogenes_ | let's see this first: sudo apt autoremove | 18:58 |
| latitude | Is there a way to remove it with out reformatting the entire drive | 18:58 |
| latitude | got an error | 18:59 |
| diogenes_ | what error? | 19:00 |
| latitude | the fallowing packages have unmet dependencies: | 19:00 |
| diogenes_ | try: sudo apt autoremove -f | 19:01 |
| alkisg | apt doesn't work at this point | 19:01 |
| alkisg | dpkg is needed to force remove enough space from /boot first | 19:01 |
| alkisg | latitude: retry my previous command with the termbin | 19:01 |
| diogenes_ | latitude, let's try this: sudo apt remove linux-image-4.4.0-21.37 | 19:04 |
| diogenes_ | see what you get | 19:04 |
| latitude | i ran the apt autoremove -f | 19:06 |
| latitude | think it worked | 19:06 |
| diogenes_ | did you notice what packages were removed? | 19:06 |
| latitude | will I have to reboot to see the free space | 19:07 |
| diogenes_ | no | 19:07 |
| latitude | I ran df -h and /boot is still at 100% | 19:07 |
| diogenes_ | did you run: sudo apt remove linux-image-4.4.0-21 | 19:07 |
| latitude | not yet i will now | 19:08 |
| alkisg | latitude: dpkg -l '*linux*' | nc termbin.com 9999 | 19:08 |
| diogenes_ | alkisg, this is the output: https://paste.ubuntu.com/26043571/ | 19:08 |
| alkisg | diogenes_: this is cut | 19:08 |
| alkisg | If you use termbin, it won't be cut | 19:08 |
| diogenes_ | ok | 19:08 |
| latitude | that wasn't installed noting to remove | 19:09 |
| alkisg | copy/paste this: dpkg -l '*linux*' | nc termbin.com 9999 | 19:10 |
| latitude | I did | 19:10 |
| latitude | I get http://termbin.com/iq05 | 19:10 |
| alkisg | nice | 19:11 |
| alkisg | go there | 19:11 |
| latitude | o ther | 19:11 |
| latitude | there | 19:11 |
| latitude | brb | 19:11 |
| alkisg | now use this command: sudo dpkg --purge linux-image-4.4.0-21-generic | 19:11 |
| alkisg | And use it again for all those packages, except for the 2 latest | 19:11 |
| alkisg | You can see the package names from that url, http://termbin.com/iq05 | 19:12 |
| latitude | I get an error: dependency prevents removal | 19:14 |
| diogenes_ | latitude, runningwhich command you get the error? | 19:15 |
| latitude | now use this command: sudo dpkg --purge linux-image-4.4.0-21-generic | 19:16 |
| diogenes_ | ok try adding -f at the end | 19:16 |
| latitude | -f gives an error: unknown force refuse | 19:20 |
| diogenes_ | ok then try: sudo apt remove linux-image-4.4.0-21-generic -f | 19:21 |
| latitude | The fallowing packages have unmet dependency | 19:22 |
| latitude | another error | 19:23 |
| diogenes_ | this: sudo apt remove linux-headers-4.4.0-28-generic -f | 19:23 |
| latitude | still get error unmet dependencies | 19:24 |
| alkisg | sudo dpkg --purge --force-all linux-image-4.4.0-21-generic | 19:25 |
| latitude | looks like that worked: @alkisg | 19:27 |
| alkisg | continue with all the other linux-images | 19:27 |
| alkisg | exceptfor the last 2 ones | 19:27 |
| latitude | do I need to do that for all in that list | 19:27 |
| diogenes_ | latitude, except the ones that end in -66 -93 | 19:29 |
| latitude | Ok @diogenes | 19:29 |
| latitude | I have on that is -101 | 19:29 |
| latitude | will that remove the headers and extra...too?? | 19:30 |
| diogenes_ | latitude, first remove these ones | 19:31 |
| alkisg | latitude: no, but you can remove headers later when apt works | 19:31 |
| latitude | ok | 19:31 |
| alkisg | You can also include multiple names in one line | 19:31 |
| alkisg | dpkg --purge etc linux1 linu2 linux3... | 19:31 |
| alkisg | So that you don't wait a lot | 19:31 |
| latitude | ok I will try that | 19:31 |
| alkisg | latitude: open another terminal, and type: uname -r | 19:33 |
| alkisg | This is the name of the kernel that you're using now | 19:33 |
| alkisg | Don't remove that one | 19:33 |
| latitude | I can remove ever other one except that one right? | 19:34 |
| latitude | what is the command to check what I purged | 19:39 |
| latitude | it has freed up some space already | 19:40 |
| latitude | How do I use apt to remove the rest | 19:45 |
| diogenes_ | sudo apt autoremove | 19:47 |
| latitude | error: unmet dependencies linux-image-extra... | 19:48 |
| diogenes_ | try with -f at the end | 19:48 |
| diogenes_ | sudo apt autoremove -f | 19:48 |
| latitude | when I run that is says the images that I purged will be installed | 19:50 |
| diogenes_ | lol copy/paste and share the link | 19:50 |
| diogenes_ | before you take any further actions | 19:51 |
| * diogenes_ will be back in a few minutes | 19:51 | |
| latitude | https://paste.ubuntu.com/26043951/ | 19:52 |
| alkisg | latitude: press "n", no there | 20:02 |
| alkisg | You don't want to reinstall all those kernels | 20:02 |
| alkisg | latitude: run this command: dpkg --purge --force-all linux-image-4.4.0-21-generic linux-image-4.4.0-28-generic linux-image-4.4.0-31-generic linux-image-4.4.0-36-generic linux-image-4.4.0-38-generic linux-image-4.4.0-45-generic linux-image-4.4.0-47-generic linux-image-4.4.0-57-generic linux-image-extra-4.4.0-21-generic linux-image-extra-4.4.0-28-generic linux-image-extra-4.4.0-31-generic linux-image-extra-4.4.0-36-generic linux-image-extra-4.4.0-38 | 20:04 |
| alkisg | latitude: in case irc cut it, here it is: http://paste.debian.net/plain/997571 | 20:05 |
| alkisg | Once that is finished, *then* run sudo apt install -f | 20:06 |
| alkisg | Autoremove will come later. | 20:06 |
| latitude | ok. working on it | 20:06 |
| latitude | Here is what I get when I run sudo apt install -f https://paste.ubuntu.com/26044095/ | 20:09 |
| alkisg | latitude: say yes there | 20:11 |
| alkisg | Watch out for errors | 20:11 |
| alkisg | I'll be afk for 20', so here are the next steps: | 20:11 |
| alkisg | 1) see no errors | 20:11 |
| alkisg | 2) sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 20:12 |
| alkisg | 3) reboot | 20:12 |
| alkisg | 4) sudo apt-get purge --auto-remove ==> pastebin before saying yes there | 20:12 |
| latitude | ok its running | 20:12 |
| latitude | I got errors :( | 20:14 |
| diogenes_ | latitude, again? what errors share the link | 20:14 |
| latitude | https://paste.ubuntu.com/26044130/ | 20:15 |
| latitude | Man the is PAINFUL!!!!! | 20:15 |
| latitude | this* | 20:16 |
| diogenes_ | latitude, remeber it's your first time, everything is painful at the first time | 20:16 |
| diogenes_ | absolutely everything | 20:16 |
| latitude | I use linux a work but that most a file server and I use that to write c code for embedded systems | 20:18 |
| diogenes_ | everything has a solution just be patient | 20:19 |
| latitude | Yeah I have to work on my patients...lol | 20:20 |
| diogenes_ | did you run sudo apt autoremove -f | 20:22 |
| latitude | Yeah it asked me if I wanted to install the packages the I purged | 20:23 |
| latitude | HEre is the output from that command https://paste.ubuntu.com/26043951/ | 20:24 |
| diogenes_ | latitude, you still alive? | 20:30 |
| latitude | yeah man | 20:31 |
| latitude | I posted the link from the result | 20:31 |
| diogenes_ | the result of sudo apt autoremove -f? | 20:31 |
| latitude | yeah | 20:32 |
| diogenes_ | post it one more time I got disconnected | 20:32 |
| latitude | https://paste.ubuntu.com/26043951/ | 20:32 |
| diogenes_ | I hope you didn't run yes | 20:33 |
| latitude | I hit no | 20:33 |
| diogenes_ | ok one more time run: dpkg -l '*linux*' | nc termbin.com 9999 | 20:33 |
| latitude | http://termbin.com/ezyj | 20:34 |
| latitude | I noticed after I used the purge command that worked I had freed up some space. But once alksig told me to run sudo apt install -f I lost the free space I gained | 20:36 |
| alkisg | latitude: back. sorry, i misread your last pastebin, you shouldn't have pressed yes there | 20:37 |
| diogenes_ | run:sudo dpkg --purge --force-all linux-headers-4.4.0-21-generic linux-headers-4.4.0-28-generic linux-headers-4.4.0-31-generic linux-headers-4.4.0-36-generic linux-headers-4.4.0-38-generic linux-headers-4.4.0-45-generic linux-headers-4.4.0-47-generic linux-headers-4.4.0-57-generic | 20:37 |
| alkisg | latitude: let's go again, use the previous command, http://paste.debian.net/plain/997571 | 20:37 |
| latitude | here is what I get https://paste.ubuntu.com/26044322/ | 20:39 |
| alkisg | ...followed by this one: http://paste.debian.net/plain/997575 | 20:39 |
| alkisg | latitude: what was/is the name of uname -r? | 20:40 |
| latitude | -66 | 20:41 |
| alkisg | latitude: df -h | nc termbin.com 9999 | 20:42 |
| latitude | I;m removing the headers | 20:44 |
| alkisg | OK, although headers don't have anything in /boot | 20:45 |
| latitude | http://termbin.com/8bwe | 20:45 |
| latitude | thats from df -h | 20:45 |
| alkisg | latitude: ok. let's do the quicker method... do those, stop if you ever see errors: | 20:46 |
| alkisg | sudo -i | 20:46 |
| alkisg | cp -a /boot /var/tmp/boot | 20:46 |
| alkisg | umount /boot | 20:46 |
| alkisg | cp -a /var/tmp/boot/* /boot/ | 20:47 |
| alkisg | apt install -f | 20:47 |
| alkisg | Note, don't reboot until everything is done, including some others I'll write later | 20:47 |
| latitude | ok | 20:48 |
| latitude | Here is the output from apt install -f https://paste.ubuntu.com/26044431/ | 20:52 |
| alkisg | latitude: press y | 20:54 |
| latitude | 40% done | 20:57 |
| alkisg | latitude: to explain: we'll use a temporary /boot to fix everything, which has no space issues, and then copy the result to the real /boot | 20:58 |
| alkisg | I.e. now you can run apt-get dist-upgrade, apt-get purge --auto-remove etc etc, with no issues at all. Just don't reboot until we copy the result back to the real /boot | 20:59 |
| latitude | I figured something like that was happening with cp command | 20:59 |
| latitude | had some errors | 21:00 |
| latitude | erros were encountered while processing linux-image-exrta-4.4.0-45-generic same for -47 -57 | 21:01 |
| latitude | its doen | 21:02 |
| latitude | done | 21:02 |
| latitude | What was the sudo -i command for?? | 21:03 |
| alkisg | sudo -i gives you permanent sudo access | 21:04 |
| latitude | alkisg you still there?? | 21:04 |
| alkisg | You exit by typing "exit" | 21:04 |
| alkisg | So we don't need to type sudo each time | 21:04 |
| latitude | is that the same as sudo bash? | 21:04 |
| alkisg | sudo bash is bad actually, sudo -i is better | 21:04 |
| alkisg | Put the errors to pastebin | 21:04 |
| latitude | https://paste.ubuntu.com/26044505/ | 21:05 |
| alkisg | This doesn't help. Put more lines, the actual error is above that. | 21:06 |
| alkisg | It's ok to copy 100 lines, it's not ok to copy 10 :) | 21:06 |
| latitude | lol ok | 21:07 |
| latitude | https://paste.ubuntu.com/26044529/ | 21:08 |
| latitude | looks like some where half installed and can't be configured | 21:08 |
| alkisg | try this: apt-get purge --auto-remove linux-image-extra-4.4.0-45-generic linux-image-extra-4.4.0-47-generic linux-image-extra-4.4.0-57-generic | 21:10 |
| alkisg | show pastebin before pressing yes | 21:10 |
| latitude | https://paste.ubuntu.com/26044561/ | 21:11 |
| latitude | forget that one | 21:13 |
| latitude | here is the one you want | 21:13 |
| latitude | https://paste.ubuntu.com/26044568/ | 21:13 |
| alkisg | latitude: go for it, press y | 21:13 |
| latitude | done | 21:14 |
| latitude | now what | 21:14 |
| alkisg | latitude: try plain apt-get purge --auto-remove | 21:15 |
| alkisg | Does it remove anything? | 21:15 |
| latitude | said 0 upgraded, 0newly installed, 0 to remove | 21:16 |
| alkisg | Cool | 21:16 |
| alkisg | Now apt-get dist-upgrade | 21:16 |
| alkisg | (dist-upgrade means normal upgrade, not go to a newer ubuntu...) | 21:17 |
| latitude | it will us 96.7 mb of additional space...continue | 21:17 |
| latitude | use* | 21:18 |
| alkisg | sure | 21:18 |
| latitude | 30% | 21:19 |
| latitude | 50% | 21:19 |
| latitude | Is this happening because the old kernals are still on my system? | 21:20 |
| alkisg | Which part is happenning? | 21:20 |
| alkisg | The 101 kernel was never properly installed | 21:21 |
| latitude | this whole this /boot being full | 21:21 |
| alkisg | This is the one that you'll want to reboot into | 21:21 |
| alkisg | Yes, it's because you never bothered to remove the old ones | 21:21 |
| alkisg | Run apt-get purge --auto-remove from time to time. | 21:21 |
| alkisg | Also, it's not worth it to have a separate /boot... | 21:21 |
| latitude | great that was my next question | 21:22 |
| latitude | yeah. Not sure why | 21:22 |
| latitude | I did that | 21:22 |
| latitude | looks like everything is getting unpacked | 21:23 |
| alkisg | I'm going to give you a script that properly purges old kernels | 21:23 |
| latitude | wow thats great man | 21:24 |
| alkisg | It's in greek, don't get scared, you'll just press ok when prompted | 21:24 |
| alkisg | We're using it in 1000+ schools here | 21:24 |
| latitude | cool I have written some scripts | 21:24 |
| alkisg | Did apt finish? | 21:25 |
| latitude | not yet still unpacking | 21:25 |
| alkisg | Open another terminal, and type: | 21:26 |
| alkisg | sudo wget https://git.launchpad.net/sch-scripts/plain/share/sch-scripts/purge-kernels?id=c92627515847e6a031b1f5a8361f36563e76ea02 -Ο /usr/local/bin/purge-kernels | 21:26 |
| alkisg | sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/purge-kernels | 21:26 |
| alkisg | After that, when you want to remove older kernels, just run sudo purge-kernels, it will keep the newest and the running one, which is the best thing to do | 21:27 |
| alkisg | (it will prompt you and tell you which packages it will remove etc etc) | 21:27 |
| latitude | ok only some of that script is in greek some I can read | 21:29 |
| alkisg | You can translate the 3 greek lines if you want | 21:29 |
| alkisg | I'll need to leave in a few minutes so let's finish quickly | 21:30 |
| alkisg | Did apt finish? | 21:30 |
| latitude | not lol | 21:30 |
| alkisg | Meh :D | 21:30 |
| alkisg | What's the size of /boot now? du -sh /boot | 21:30 |
| latitude | command didnt work | 21:32 |
| alkisg | That doesn't help, use copy/paste of messages :) | 21:32 |
| alkisg | du -sh /boot | 21:32 |
| alkisg | That should work without issues... | 21:33 |
| latitude | sorry i wasn't root | 21:33 |
| latitude | 665m | 21:33 |
| alkisg | Ouch, you'll need to run purge kernels before you copy it back :) | 21:35 |
| alkisg | Wait until apt finishes of course | 21:35 |
| alkisg | Then run purge-kernels, put the result to pastebin before pressing yes, and ping me | 21:35 |
| latitude | done! | 21:35 |
| latitude | how do I ping? | 21:35 |
| latitude | i ran that command again now /root is 460M | 21:36 |
| alkisg | Ping means to write my name, alkisg | 21:36 |
| alkisg | It makes a sound in the other person's computer | 21:37 |
| latitude | got it | 21:37 |
| latitude | apt finished | 21:37 |
| alkisg | You can use tab in irc to autocomplete names, e.g. lat<tab> => autocompletes latitude | 21:37 |
| alkisg | OK, run purge-kernels | 21:37 |
| latitude | there was an error with apt | 21:38 |
| alkisg | Use pastebin again | 21:38 |
| latitude | https://paste.ubuntu.com/26044707/ | 21:39 |
| alkisg | No space left on device?! Which device, we don't have /boot mounted... | 21:40 |
| alkisg | latitude: actually, do you mind if I help with vnc to finish faster? It's almost midnight here... | 21:41 |
| latitude | yeah sure | 21:41 |
| alkisg | sudo apt install x11vnc | 21:41 |
| alkisg | x11vnc -connect srv1-dide.ioa.sch.gr | 21:41 |
| alkisg | apt install might fail because of the other errors, but x11vnc should run anyway | 21:41 |
| latitude | ok | 21:42 |
| alkisg | latitude: I think you're good | 21:54 |
| latitude | wow man that was GREAT!!! | 21:54 |
| alkisg | Is grub installed in /dev/sda? | 21:54 |
| alkisg | I'd like to reinstall it just in case... | 21:54 |
| latitude | not sure | 21:55 |
| alkisg | Can you reboot just to make sure,before I leave? | 21:56 |
| latitude | yeah I will be right back | 21:56 |
| alkisg | If it doesn't... you'd need a live cd or something | 21:56 |
| alkisg | I'm hoping it'll boot fine though :) | 21:56 |
| latitude | think I have a usb stick with linux on it | 21:56 |
| alkisg | Cool, go for reboot | 21:56 |
| latitude | ok I hope to be back soon | 21:56 |
| latitude | YEAH alkisg | 22:00 |
| alkisg | :) | 22:01 |
| latitude | it worked | 22:01 |
| latitude | thank you so much | 22:01 |
| alkisg | Cool. Now you are with 101 kernel, run sudo purge-kernels once more to remove 66 | 22:01 |
| alkisg | Good night all :) | 22:01 |
