per my previous post I completed the upgrade to 13.0, including the 900 files I didn’t get to download and install after using sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y

I now have a working internet connection using a lan cable.

More important than this wlan/lan issue is this new one: each time I try to update/upgrade with either sudo apt --fix-broken install , sudo apt full-upgrade , sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y I get:

    Note. Before rebooting, regenerate initramfs for all kernel versions. I am not in debian, but dpkg-reconfigure initramfs-tools might do it.

    Write error : cannot write block : No space left on device

    Seems like your boot partition is full.

      For some reason the Debian installer likes to make a tiny /boot so you can only fit 2-3 kernels at most. Try removing some old ones first.

          I’ve created a small helper script to help me with this:

          #!/bin/bash
USED_VER=$(uname -r)
echo "Kernel version in use: $USED_VER"

echo "Other installed versions:"
dpkg --list 'linux-image*' | grep ^ii | grep -v $USED_VER

echo "Remove unneeded packages above using the following command:"
echo "sudo apt remove linux-image-VERSION"

          It prints a list of the installed kernels (excl. the running one) and prints the command to uninstall the packages (it doesn’t remove anything by itself).

          List all installed kernels:

          dpkg -l | grep linux-image | awk '{print$2}'

          Remove certain kernels:

          sudo apt remove --purge linux-image-XXX

          where XXX is the kernel version you wish to remove, as printed above. Repeat as needed until all unwanted kernels have been removed.

          Then update grub:

          sudo update-grub2

          And reboot:

          sudo reboot
