Not enough free disk space on upgrade
by eco_bach from LinuxQuestions.org on (#53W59)
So spent the afternoon simply trying to upgrade from Ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04
using the following command
Code:sudo update-manager -c -dBut repeatedly get the following error popup when the installation is half complete
Quote:
I've gone thru all the usual steps to free up space including removing ALL but necessary linux kernels et.
This is the result of a $df command
