Thread: Boot Partition is Full

i have total of 4 partitions on ubuntu 9.10 (karmic) system:

sda1 = /boot
sda2 = /
sda3 = swap
sda4 = /home

boot partition 94 mib recommended more enough space. turns out /boot partition full , message every time log ubuntu saying, 'the volume "boot" has 0 bytes disk space remaining.' after installing gparted check on partitions got following error in apt-get:

code:

setting gparted (0.4.5-2ubuntu1) ...    setting kpartx (0.4.8-14ubuntu2) ...    processing triggers libc-bin ...  ldconfig deferred processing taking place  processing triggers initramfs-tools ...  update-initramfs: generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.31-19-generic    gzip: stdout: no space left on device  update-initramfs: failed /boot/initrd.img-2.6.31-19-generic  dpkg: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1  e: sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned error code (2)

i have no experience messing around in /boot partition besides modifying grub. think have many kernel versions installed in /boot partition? can advise me on here?

thanks!
