Most recent linux-image-2.6.18-6-686 fails to install debian-user@lists.debian.org,
I have been trying to install on etch the most recent linux-image-2.6.18-6-686 on an IBM Thinkpad T23 with a Pentium 3 and on a Gateway desktop also running a Pentium 3 using aptitude update && aptitude upgrade. Every time I do this, I get the error message:
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/linux-image-2.6.8-6-686_2.6.18.dfsg.1-1-18etch1_i386.deb (--unpack): failed in buffer_write (fd) (9, ret=-1): backend dpkg-deb during './lib/modules/2.6.18-6-686/kernel/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-core.ko' : No space left on device
I am not sure what this means (my hlinux books are not available) nor do I know what to do about this. I've found nothing googling the problem. I switched to etch after it became stable and have had no trouble upgrading or installing using aptitude. I'd appreciate any information you could give me. Thanks.
